Description

Hatsukokoro "Hayabusa" VG5 Petty 150mmThe VG5 steel used is a significant upgrade from previous VG steel, as the addition of vanadium (V) has resulted in finer carbides. This creates an ideal balance of hardness, abrasion resistance, and corrosion resistance. The Hayabusa ("Falcon") VG5 series is a highly recommended option for new Japanese knife enthusiasts looking for a high toughness and low maintenance cutlery. Spec: Origin (Made in): Seki, Gifu Prefecture, Japan Brand: Hatsukokoro

Care:

Wash and dry with a soft sponge, and safely store after use. Avoid cutting into bones, frozen foods, hard fruit pits.

Cutting Surface:

Recommended cutting surface: wood, rubberized boards and high-end composites, and quality plastics such as polyethene make acceptable cutting surfaces, and will help protect and prolong knife’s edge. AVOID glass, metal, countertops, and other rigid, non-forgiving surfaces.

Sharpening:

We recommend sharpening all quality Japanese knives on whetstones, as we believe they yield the best results for your knives.

My go to brand
My go to brand. Other brands I have to reapply constantly and still have sunburn. I love this brand and the stick is even better for applying sunscreen. Very reliable without any mess!

Not fur Surfing or other Water Sports
I got this in a swag bag from a surfing contest. The stick is very dry...that's the only way I can explain how it feels. It certainly doesn't glide on like other face sticks. After one wave and ducking my face in the water, the product smeared off and ran into my eyes. My vision got blurry from that, and it was really hard to see the waves coming in. I won't be using this product ever again. I also looked at the EWG website, and this product was given a 6. For those new to EWG, that's not a good rating. You want like a 1 or 2.

Too little product for the price
I was surprised at how little product you get for the price. After only two weeks, the bar already broke in half, and there's not much left. Additionally, it leaves white streaks, so you'll need to rub it in after applying. I still like the fact that it's got clean organic ingredients. I won't by the bar again, but I will try the spray

My favorite sunscreen
Size: 5 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
The BEST sunscreen I have tried. I LOVE this unscented Coola. It goes on smooth and doesn’t feel sticky at all, you will forget you have it on. It truly is unscented and so light. It’s also effective protection from the sun.
