Sukenari R2/SG2 3 Layer Gyuto Japanese Knife 210mm with Shitan Handle

 ZDP189

The super steel material ZDP 189 from Hitachi used in knife production, has an extremely high carbon (3%) and chromium (20%) content making it expensive to manufacture. It is made using powdered metal technology. 

The pure carbon content of ZDP 189 makes it one of the most edge retentive alloy in the knife industry. It has toughness against chipping and offers excellent wear resistance.

The best way to maintain the sharpness of the ZDP 189 blade is by using diamond rods with very light pressure. Some people reported that Japanese water stones can do the job as well.
