The Kinataro-Ame steel is achieved through a process of three different
metals welded, heated, forged, hammered, folded, shaped and ground. This
material is hard and tough.
The traditional blade is quite different from its Western knives. First,
it is a hand laminated blade with a very hard stainless steel (Rc62 to
Rc64) laminated to between two pieces of soft stainless steel. The use
of very hard stainless steel requires the soft stainless steel both for
the damping qualities and to provide an element of toughness that the steel
alone would not have. Second, Japanese knives take a very fine edge and
can cut paper-thin slices of meat or vegetables.
