Brand new 😀 4 in. Petty Knife-Multilayer Steel Blade with VG5 Core Full Tang by Unbranded 🎉

4 in. Petty Knife. Hayabusa Cutlery is made in Tsubame City, Japan exclusively for Ginkgo Int’l Ltd in the Kataoka kitchen knife factory. The area’s manufacturing history dates back some 400 years to the Edo Period starting with metal nails, venturing into samurai sword production, and now to some of the most sought after metal and kitchenware products in the country and around the world. The Hayabusa Cutlery line is as beautiful as it is comfortable. Blades are finished with a hammered surface, and bead blast to accentuate the diffference between the hard and soft layers.

• Multi-layer Japanese steel blades, extra hard VG-5 stainless core with tough, flexible outer layers of SUS410 steel, the hard inner cores stays sharp, and the out layers protect the inner core
• 3-layers are heated and compressed over and over resulting in a rockwell hardness of over 61°, and a core thickness of just .65mm
• Outer SUS410 steel layers remain softer and more flexible to provide protection against damage and corrosion
• Multi-layer knife blades are welded to the heavy stainless steel bolsters, a full tang runs the length of the handle to support the linen micarta scales
• Solid linen micarta handles are made from layers of red and black cotton linen, and resin creating a super durable, ergonomic grip
• Blades are ground to 14-15° on each side for easy slicing and chopping
• Each knife is hand finished with a stainless end cap, screwed to the full tang for perfect balance
