For many years, knife manufacturers have been trying to achieve the ultimate cutting edge which is rated using a Rockwell degree scale (liken it to degrees Fahrenheit) - the highest being Rockwell 62° (this is like the boiling point of water).However, the brittleness of the knife has made this impossible to produce commercially without using a Damascus method, which is very expensive. I.O.Shen have overcome this problem by sandwiching 2 softer outer layers of steel with Rockwell 62° to produce the ultimate cutting edge.
The Tai Tang handle is not just an embellishment but it is actually an integral part of the handle frame (the tang).The new handle design distinguishes I.O.Shen from any other knife, as well as improving balance and stability.
