This is some of the finest Japanese blade steel similar to sword steel and makes great kitchen knives, hunting knives etc.
Takefu Shiro 2 steel is fine grained and takes a razor edge and makes great knives. Takefu adds Cr(.2-.5%) and Ni(.7-1.3%) to this steel which differs from the Hitachi White Paper steel #2.
