Carbon steel is the workhorse of the knife industry. In use for nearly a millennia it holds a super sharp edge and is easy to sharpen. These single steel blades are tough and sharp, with an edge geometry that is like a faster, thinner version of its European counterparts. Light and easy to sharpen, our Carbon Steel series takes a very keen edge due to the fine grain structure of the steel.
Blade | Single steel. SK-4 carbon steel |
HRC | 60-61 |
Bevel | Double |
Bevel Angle Ratio | 50:50 |
Handle | Eco wood |
CAUTION: All Carbon steel blades will patina through regular use and will easily rust if left wet. This is not a defect, it is a product of the material that comes with carbon steel's ability to take a finer edge, which is why it is preferred by many chefs. This is NOT a stainless steel.

It took some getting used to, to wipe knives like these immediately, but if you understand carbon steel knife care, these are amazing and so sharp and strong. If you are American or a country not used to carbon steel, I recommend choosing the stainless steel knives or a hybrid stainless steel carbon.
