Funayuki 150 mm (5.9 in) Blue#2
- Type: Funayuki
- Finish: Kurouchi
- Blade Length: 150 mm (5.9 in)
- Construction: Awase
- Core Edge Steel: Blue (Aogami) #2
- HRC (Rockwell Hardness): 60-61
- Handle: Walnut/Magnolia
- Bevel: Double-Bevel
- Place of Origin: Tosa, Japan
Anglers initially used these all-purpose knives to cook fish and vegetables onboard their boats. The design combines aspects of Usuba and Sashimi knives. It's versatile like the Santoku but has a sharper tip, perfect for delicate work. Its double-bevel blade works for both right and left-handed people.
Blue (Aogami) #2 (Hitachi Metals Ltd.) is made by adding Chromium and Tungsten / Wolfram to White Steel #1. This results in increased toughness and the production of hard carbide molecules, which improve edge retention. Many knife users have noted that while Blue Steel #2 is very similar to White Steel #1 in terms of edge sharpness, it has slightly superior edge retention.
* This is handmade product, so there may be slight difference from the actual image.
