Shirogami White #3 Knives

Shirogami #3 steel has the lowest carbon content of the white steel varieties, typically around 0.8–0.9%. While it doesn't achieve the same hardness or sharpness as Shirogami #1 or #2, it offers better toughness and resistance to chipping. This makes it a practical option for knives that are intended for heavier use or for users who prefer easier maintenance and a slightly more robust blade.
