VG-10

VG10 (V for Vanadium, G for "gold" as in "gold standard") is produced in the city of Echizen, just a 2 hour drive from Seki. VG10 is made by Takefu Special Steel Company, a relatively small steel company that 60 years ago managed to find the right balance of different elements to create the most popular Japanese knife steel today. VG10 stainless steel with a relatively high content of carbon (C) (1%), 15% chromium (Cr), 1% molybdenum (Mo), 0.3% vanadium (V) and 1.5% cobalt (Co). The combination of Cr, Mo and V produces many hard carbides, making the steel abrasion resistant, which translates into long-term sharpness. Heat treated (hardened) to a hardness of 60-61 HRC.

VG-10 is a high quality stainless steel that is often used in the manufacture of knives and other blades. This steel was originally developed by the Japanese company Takefu Special Steel Co., Ltd. The VG-10 has gained great popularity due to its exceptional features. Here is some key information about the VG-10:

  1. Alloy composition:

    • VG-10 is a stainless steel that contains several key components including chromium, molybdenum, vanadium and cobalt. The carbon content is relatively high, which contributes to the hardness of the steel.
  2. Hardness:

    • VG-10 is known for its high hardness. This feature enables excellent sharpness of the blade to be achieved and maintained. The hardness of VG-10 is usually around 58-61 HRC (Rockwell hardness scale).
  3. The Blade and the Retention of the Blade:

    • The VG-10 has an excellent ability to maintain sharpness. This means that knives made from VG-10 have a long-lasting sharp edge with proper care.
  4. Corrosion Resistance:

    • The chromium content makes VG-10 resistant to corrosive influences. This means that VG-10 knives are suitable for use in a variety of environments and conditions.
  5. Processing:

    • VG-10 is often manufactured using modern technology, which ensures consistent steel quality and allows for precision machining.
  6. Use:

    • VG-10 is a popular choice for the manufacture of quality knives, kitchen tools and other products where high hardness and corrosion resistance are required.
  7. Japanese Tradition:

    • The VG-10 is part of the Japanese tradition of knife making, where the emphasis is on precision craftsmanship and performance.

When choosing a knife with VG-10 steel, it is also important to consider design, ergonomics and purpose of use, as each knife can be designed for specific tasks.
