What's AEB-L like?

Ban · May 23, 2011

I personally think it is a great steel for the kitchen environment. AEB-L is highly stain resistant and is actually designed as a razor blade steel. It has a super fine grain structure which means it takes a ultra sharp high polished edge that is ideal for push cuts.

Thanks. How hard is it to put that ultra-sharp edge on there, and does it last long with typical kitchen work?

Ban · May 23, 2011

AEB-L sharpens up easily and holds a great edge for typical kitchen work.

Woo hoo! I think one of those santokus may be mine, if I may be so bold to guess?

Ban · May 25, 2011

Yes, it is. I will be bringing it to Blade for you.
