01 Carbon Steel is very similar to Aogami in it's alloy composition, just with a smaller amount of tungsten.

We are very happy to offer these high-performance boning knives to our butcher knife line-up. These are tough, nimble and hold a great edge without being difficult to sharpen.

Inspired from the design by Daniel Hilgenberg and chef & butcher Justin Meddis from Rose's in Durham, NC. This knife is able to keep up with the demands of large production butchery, as well as being able to do clean precise work. These have received rave reviews from the butchers we know who use them!

This is a carbon steel knife. Carbon steel is expected to develop a dark patina with use. It needs to be hand washed and towel dried soon after use. Do not air dry. Do not put it in the dishwasher. Long exposure to moisture and debris will result in rust. Any rust development should be removed with a light abrasive.

Use on a quality wooden cutting board will help the knife stay sharper for longer. Use on hard surfaces like plates and bamboo will reduce the edge life and can result in edge damage.

We recommend hand sharpening on whetstones. We have found that most western knives perform best with a medium finish starting around 1000 grit. Avoid pull through sharpeners and non-water cooled mechanized sharpening. Steel honing rods work well with this knife.
