AS stands for Aogami Super Steel. It is a high quality carbon steel with excellent cut and sharpening retention and is very easy to sharpen to a razor blade. The core can rust if the knife is not wiped dry after use, but most of the blade is in stainless steel covers for easy maintenance. Over time, the cutting edge will darken, but this will only add to the attractiveness of the knife.
Medium blade, 210 mm, suitable for most kitchens. It's long enough to handle most of the ingredients, yet compact enough to fit comfortably in small kitchens and small spaces. The sharpening of these knives is exceptional and the blade is very sharp right out of the box.
Note that the sharpener deliberately thinns the tips of these knives to make them work better. Often this will result in a fuzzy / opaque scratch pattern at the tip. This is not a defect. See the example in the fourth picture.
