Takefu Stainless Steel Sandwich - Super Gold 2 + VG10, for exceptional blades.

This sandwich steel is manufactured by the Japanese company Takefu, renowned worldwide for the quality and fineness of its grades. The steel is composed of two particularly high quality grades, which will satisfy the most demanding knifemakers.

A central core in Super Gold 2.

Our Takefu stainless steel sandwich consists of a central core made of stainless steel SPG2 - for "Super Gold 2". A powder-metallurgy grade that guarantees both fine grain and near-perfect purity, Super Gold 2 stainless steel combines all the qualities that a knifemaker could want:

- Very high hardnesses after heat treatment;
- Good ductility;
- Good resistance to abrasive wear;
- Excellent resistance to corrosion;
- And above all, exceptional cutting quality.

And this core of Japanese Super Gold 2 stainless steel is surrounded by another steel grade that is particularly appreciated in knifemaking...

VG10 stainless steel flanks.

The central core of Super Gold 2 stainless steel is surrounded on both sides by a layer of VG10 stainless steel (also available in homogeneous bars in our online shop), also manufactured by the company Takefu. This grade of stainless steel is a concentrate of Japanese know-how, with good machinability and good abrasion and corrosion resistance.
