VG-10
   VG-10 is high-carbon stainless steel containing cobalt, hard. The material is excellent sharpness and has wear resistance. So spreads between the professional. It is developed and made by Takefu Special Steel Co.,Ltd.  It's Japanese company. 

   If the entire blade is very hard, it is difficult to sharpen. If the edge is soft, it is dull, and the sharpness falls immediately. So the hard material is used in the center only, the soft material is used in the side.  

NOTE:

Core steel of VG10 and side steel are rust resistant though please wash, wipe and dry it up well after use. In case rust appears on the blade, use cleanser or sharpening store. (scratch may appear)

Don't twist edge and hit. Don't cut and hit frozen foods or bones, the edge will be chipped or broken since the blade of Japanese is thinner for sharpness.
