Masamoto’s VG knives are made from Hyper Molybdenum Vanadium steel and were rated #1 Hybrid Chef’s Knife by Cook’s Illustrated Magazine in a survey of top brands. These knives have excellent edge retention and combine the sharpness of carbon steel with rust resistance. The black Duracon resin handles are hygienic and comfortable in the hand and these knives have a great light yet balanced feel.
