Shibata Koutetsu Aogami Super Petty 135mm (5.3")

Description

The Shibata Koutetsu Aogami Super line is hand-forged in Takefu, Japan. Each knife is crafted from Aogami Super blue steel, known for its excellent edge retention and ability to get incredibly sharp. They feature stainless cladding with textured sides to allow for better food release and are hand sharpened by master craftsman Takayuki Shibata.

The fit and finish on these knives is of the same top of the line caliber as the SG2 Koutetsu knives. They are finished with octagonal handles made from rosewood.

Why we love them: Shibata knives are super lightweight, true lasers that need to used to believe their performance. Aogami steel is super responsive to sharpening making for easy maintenance.
