All KOTAI knives are forged with 440C steel, a premium steel that combines a high carbon content for hardness and edge longevity with the optimal amount of chromium to prevent oxidation. The hidden full tang – a single piece of steel running from the tip of the blade to the end of the handle – gives the knives ideal balance and exceptional durability. Beyond the aesthetic appeal, the hammering of the “Tsuchime” blade creates small air pockets between the blade and the food slices. ­ This ancestral Japanese method prevents food from sticking to the blade for pleasant and quick cutting.
