The Hatsukokoro Aogami Super Migaki series is an exceptional value. This top-shelf carbon steel is fantastic for use in kitchen knives and can hold a steep edge and sharpen easily. The migaki finish is high quality, as is the single-piece, octagonal ebony handle with stained, lacquer coating for water resistance. HRC on these knives is 62-63 and the edge grind is even. Great for both right- and left-handed users.
