Aogami Super Blue Steel

Aogami Super steel, also known as Super Blue, has the highest alloy content of the Blue Steel variants, with a carbon content around 1.4–1.5% and higher levels of chromium and tungsten. This composition provides exceptional hardness, edge retention, and wear resistance, making it highly prized for demanding cutting tasks. Despite its enhanced durability, it remains relatively easy to sharpen compared to stainless steels, though its high hardness can make it slightly more brittle than Aogami #2.
