Forged Stainless clad shirogami 2 carbon steel with horn ferruled wenge handle.

These have a wide bevel grind with medium thin geometry behind the edge. The finish is not super meticulous but this helps to keep them affordable. 

Shirogami gets phenomenally sharp more easily than many other steels that are alloyed for longer edge life, while it is not pre-engineered for edge life, it is a sharpeners dream steel. It is a blank canvas for experimenting with different finishing stones. 

Shirogami is a reactive carbon steel. It should be dried immediately after use to avoid rusting. It will patina with normal use. No soaking or dishwasher. Rust can be removed with a light abrasive.
