One key feature is its high cobalt content (8%), which provides exceptional wear resistance and durability. Originally designed for industrial machinery, this steel is also ideal for high-end kitchen knives that require long-lasting edge retention. Forging kitchen knives from High Speed Steel is challenging, and few manufacturers attempt it. However, the results can be overwhelmingly positive when done successfully. Heat treatment is critical; the steel must reach temperatures exceeding 1200 degrees Celsius. This extreme heat is vital in the crafting of handcrafted Japanese knives and is integral to the exceptional features of the Yoshihiro High Speed Steel Gyuto. Our Yoshihiro HAP40 High Speed Stainless Steel Gyuto is a state-of-the-art handcrafted Japanese chef's knife. HAP40 (Funmatsu Haisu) stainless steel represents a significant advancement in the stainless steel knife market, maximizing cutting performance and edge retention like few others. Forged at extremely high temperatures, the metallic elements are evenly dispersed to create a steel composition durable enough for industrial machinery and power tools. With a Rockwell hardness scale rating of 65-66, this knife maintains its superior edge for an extended period. The High Speed Stainless Steel core is clad with softer stainless steel, resulting in exceptional toughness and unmatched edge retention. It is complemented by a traditional premium ebony handle with a bolster for a balanced, comfortable grip, making it perfect for professionals engaged in high-volume prep work for extended hours.
