The smith uses solely SK5 carbon steel with iron for this series, as it was used be his ancestors for centuries. The advantage is that the blade remains sharp for a very long time and can be relatively easily re-sharpened. The 2-3 layer-blade is of SK5 carbon steel with iron. The handle is of magnolia wood. The blade is not stainless. And is especially sturdy.
