VG-10 is a well known, high end Japanese stainless steel which is considered premium. It contains vanadium, which is renowned for its toughness and 15% chromium, giving it an excellent rust resistance. This steel is specifically designed for high-quality blades used in cutlery. VG-10 can be sharpened to a fine edge that is very durable and can maintain a hardness of 60+ Rockwell without becoming brittle, it also contains cobalt, carbon, molybdenum and manganese.
Damascus Knives are prized for their beautiful water-like patterning and for their razor sharpness, the Damascus knives produced today contain different grades of steel folded together repeatedly, around a core of pure knife-grade steel. The aim is to imitate the technique and appearance of historical Damascus steel. Properly made Japanese Damascus Knives will always exhibit great durability and sharpness, along with the distinctive patterning created by the layers of metal.
