About SRS13 Steel
SRS13 steel is the newer innovative high speed powdered stainless steel, which can be heat treated to HRC64. They are extremely sharp and fast cutting. Sometimes artisans choose not to push the HRC to the limit, leaving room for flexibility. Compared with SG2/R2 steel, SRS13 steel is less likely to chip due to the flexibility.
Care:
Wash and dry with a soft sponge, and safely store after use. Avoid cutting into bones, frozen foods, hard fruit pits.
Cutting Surface:
Recommended cutting surface: wood, rubberized boards and high-end composites, and quality plastics such as polyethene make acceptable cutting surfaces, and will help protect and prolong knife’s edge. AVOID glass, metal, countertops, and other rigid, non-forgiving surfaces.
Sharpening:
We recommend sharpening all quality Japanese knives on whetstones, as we believe they yield the best results for your knives.
