Use and Care:
Blue Steel is a type of carbon steel that boasts exceptional sharpness and edge retention. While it requires proper care to prevent rusting, many professional chefs and knife enthusiasts prefer carbon steel because of its ability to be sharpened to a fine edge. In fact, Blue Steel has become the gold standard for carbon steel knives in the Japanese knife community. If you're looking for a high-quality, sharp and durable knife, Blue Steel might just be the perfect fit for you.
Carbon Steel requires a bit more care than Stainless steel, but over time a protective patina will form on the knife. You should wipe your knife clean in between tasks and promptly clean your knife after prepping your meal.
