Japanese White Steel No.2 Knives

White Steel No. 2, also known as Shirogami or “White Paper,” is used to create many of the traditional Japanese knives that are available here at Hasu-Seizo. It has long been considered to be the closest comparison to the traditional tama-hagane steel that had been utilized in Japan for centuries, and it is known for its incredible sharpness due to its purity and high carbon content.
