Molybdenum-vanadium steel contains both molybdenum and vanadium.
Contains molybdenum (Mo) and vanadium (V), which improves wear resistance (does not easily lose sharpness).
It also has good corrosion resistance (rust resistance), so it can be used not only for kitchen knives but also for medical scalpels, machine parts, tool steel, etc.
This steel material is popular because it is easy to maintain, and is loved by many people, from cooks to household users.
Many stainless steel knives use molybdenum or vanadium.
Although it is resistant to rust, it is not completely rust-free.
We recommend that you thoroughly remove moisture and dry it before storing it.
A characteristic of rust on molybdenum steel is scattered pinholes that look like holes made with a needle.
It is characterized by rust, so please handle with care.
