A special FC61 steel that undergoes twofold ice-hardening is used for the FRIODUR blade. FC61 steel is used for the blade. This is characterized by great hardness and able to withstand plenty of strain. With this special steel, an incredibly fine Katana-edge cut is possible – resulting in high sharpness and edge holding ability.
Originally, this cut dates back to the blades of Japanese swords and is considered an expression of master knife-making craftsmanship.
