Our Yoshihiro SLD Stainless Clad Knives are crafted with a core clad in two layers of stainless steel. This construction offers durability and protection while maintaining an exceptionally sharp edge. The high-performance SLD steel, part of a new generation of materials developed in Japan, delivers a unique combination of features: it is highly wear-resistant, possesses a hardness level comparable to carbon steel, and provides superior stain resistance. This cutting-edge metallurgy results in knives with excellent sharpness, long-lasting edge retention, and stainless durability.
