Single Edged – Aonamiuchi Blue Steel
Aonamiuchi is one of Yoshihiro's premium traditional lines, forged with a core of Blue Steel #1 (Aogami #1). Blue Steel #1 has a higher carbon content than Blue Steel #2. It can be hardened further for outstanding sharpness and edge retention, which suits demanding professional use.
Each Aonamiuchi blade is hand-forged and finished by experienced craftsmen and fitted with fine handles such as yew, shitan and ebony. The collection covers the full range of traditional shapes, including yanagi, yanagi kiritsuke, deba, usuba, mioroshi, takobiki, garasuki and limited hand-engraved hamokiri.
