Japanese knives are the culmination of tradition and technology that have evolved in a unique way along with Japan's food culture. Japanese knives, which inherit the manufacturing methods of Japanese swords, combine excellent sharpness and beauty for cooking fish and vegetables. On the other hand, Western knives introduced from the West are characterized by their durability and ease of use, making them suitable for meat and a wide range of ingredients. Japanese-Western fusion knives such as the uniquely Japanese Santoku knife and Bunka knife have also been created. Japanese knives are the pride of the Japanese people, conveying the refinement of Japanese cuisine and the delicacy of Japanese tools to the world.
ZDP-189 Powdered High Speed Tool Steel
ZDP-189 (Hitachi Metals Ltd.) powder metallurgy ‘super steel’ was developed to compete with Cowry X. It has a similar chemical composition to Cowry X and offers a similar level of performance. Unfortunately, due to the difficulty of producing ZDP-189 and the special forging and heat-treatment it requires, knives that use this steel are expensive and relatively rare.
