Moritaka Hamono Aogami #2 Santoku Polished Acrylic Length: 130mm / 131mm /Hand forged santoku with Aogami #2 core steel using Moritakas signature Warikomi construction, heat treated to 61 62 HRC, with a medium rough Kurouchi finish and kasumi on the grind. Fairly flat grind and thinness behind edge. Superb edge retention and still easy to sharpen and thin. *Note: the "discoloration" close to tang is part of Moritaka's patented handle assembly, which is basically welded stainless steel to prevent rusting of the nakago.
