Molybdenum vanadium steel includes molybdenum for heightened strength and toughness and improved hardening, and vanadium for greater strength and abrasion resistance.
Ryujin insists on molybdenum vanadium steel made in Japan. The quality, stability, strength and abrasion resistance of Japanese steel measurably outperform the overseas grades. These characteristics ultimately produce a large effect on sharpness of a blade.
⚠️This is a stainless steel knife. It should be hand
washed and towel dried. Habitual dishwasher use will
result in degraded edge and handle. Consistent long
term exposure to moisture can lead to oxidation.
