Aogami, also known as Blue Paper Steel, is a high-carbon steel renowned for its excellent sharpness, durability, and edge retention. It is an alloy steel made by adding tungsten and chromium to Shirogami (White Paper Steel), a carbon steel with low impurities. The name "Aogami" (青紙) comes from the blue paper used to wrap the steel during production.
Aogami No. 2 (Blue Steel 2): Contains 1.05-1.15% carbon and can reach hardness up to 63 HRC
Please note, Aogami steel requires diligent maintenance to prevent rust due to its high carbon content.
