With a hardness of 62–63 HRC, it delivers excellent edge retention, durability, and resistance to wear and corrosion. This combination makes SG2 an ideal steel for professional-grade kitchen knives, offering long-lasting sharpness and reliable performance in demanding kitchen environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch6\u003eAbout Hado\u003c\/h6\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHado, as the first in-house brand of Fukui Co. \u0026amp; Ltd. in 109 years, symbolizes the company's commitment to excellence in crafting blades. The name \"Hado\" reflects this dedication, as \"do\" (道) represents the path or way, a concept deeply rooted in Japanese culture, similar to \"Sado\" (tea ceremony), \"Kado\" (flower arrangement), and \"Kyudo\" (archery). By naming the brand \"Hado\" (the road of blades), Fukui emphasizes its intention to continue its journey of refinement and innovation in blade-making, aiming to achieve the highest quality over the next century.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch6\u003eBunka Knife\u003c\/h6\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Bunka knife is a general-purpose knife similar to the Santoku. Its profile allows for much the same use as a Santoku (meat, vegetables, and fish), while its finer, more pointed tip aids precision cutting, such as mukimono or fine cuts like brunoise and julienne.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Hado","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67674922909786,"sku":"14700","price":290.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0559\/9667\/8234\/files\/14700_Hado_Shiosai_SG2_Bunka_180mm_Oak_Handle.jpg?v=1791844566","url":"https:\/\/mtckitchen.com\/products\/hado-shiosai-sg2-bunka-180mm-oak-handle","provider":"MTC Kitchen","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
