Are yoshikane knives good?
The blades feature a forged distal taper for optimal balance. SKD Hammer Finished Knives by Yoshikane are among the best knives in terms of cutting ability and overall quality that can be found anywhere.
What is SKD steel?
SKD steel has a fine structure and good distribution of the elements, which in turn makes it possible to add more alloy elements than in other stainless steels. SKD steel is slightly harder than SG2 steel but because of the lower chrome content, it is less rust-resistant too.
Is SKD stainless?
The semi stainless nature of the SKD (and alike) means the knife will not rust during normal use and can be left unattended for a short period of time during service, but could still rust if not cleaned for an extended period of time. It will take on patina during daily use just like carbon steel.
