The Seki Magoroku Rosewood Handle series captivates by its mirror-finished blade made of top-quality steel and the exquisitely polished edge that gives the series a high cutting performance. Some of the range has a blade that is made from the combination of two different steels, which creates a fascinating contrast between the mirror-polished blade and the stained opposite site. A combination that guarantees a high corrosion resistance and the long-lasting performance of these blades. The production process of the Composite blades is based on a new technology and guarantees high resistance and extreme precision. The two steel grades are jointed through a particular copper brazing procedure.
