Thanks to a special heat treatment that includes a three-stage hardening process, cooling at a very low temperature, and tempering, the steel reaches a hardness of 58-59 HRC. The secret of this technology is known only to the owner of the company, the Hattori family. Knives made of this steel are distinguished by their extraordinary sharpness and long-lasting aggressiveness of the cutting edge, which has gained recognition from users worldwide.
