Details

A necessity for all of those small, delicate items that need to be peeled, sliced and diced, a paring knife is a must-have tool for the kitchen. Now you can make your own custom paring knife with this blank.

ZHEN AUS 10 Knife Kits are constructed from three layers of AUS 10 steel (HRC59-61) forged together to form a refined grain structure that is more wear resistant, much tougher, and has the ability sharpen and maintain a keen edge. AUS-10 Japanese stainless steel has roughly the same carbon content as 440C but with slightly less chromium, so it should be a bit less rust resistant but tougher than traditional 440C. It also competes well with the higher-end steels, like ATS-34 and above. Designed for the chef at heart, these knives would make a great gift for the cook in your family.

Features:
  • Customize your knife blade by choosing from a myriad of woods to make your handle
  • Forged from 3 layers of AUS 10 steel
  • Rockwell hardness of 59 -61
  • Maintains a keen edge
Specifications:
  • Overall Length: 7-11/16"
  • Blade Length: 3-5/16"
  • Blade Material: AUS-10 Japanese stainless steel
What's Included:
  • (1) Knife blade blank
  • (4) Rivets
Notes:
  • Knife scale / handle material sold separately.
  • Hand wash your blades with gentle dish soap, rinse clean and towel dry immediately.
  • Hone your blades with a steel or ceramic rod weekly to keep them sharp. We recommend sharpening your blades with a whetstone at an angle of 15°-20°.
  • CAUTION: DO NOT chop bone or use this knife on a hard surface like a glass cutting board, tile, or granite.

    Good buy

    I fitted the knife with a fun resin handle with mosaic pins for my neighbor. She loves it and always comments on how sharp it is. Makes a great gift that people will use.

    Nice Blade

    Nice knife as far as a cheaper Japanese production knife goes. Not really sharp outof box, but shapened up nicely on water stones and strop. Rivets are junk, I had to drill 2 back out because they broke. Better off using rods as pins. Maintains edge fairly well and doesnt require the maintenance of high carbon steel japanese blades.
