What is 'Blue Super'?

Aogami Super Blue steel is considered to be the best carbon steel for knife making if you want insanely sharp knives. Japanese steels are commonly known by the colour that the label wrapped around the steel happens to be (white, blue, super blue). In this case it's super blue steel, also known as Aogami Super Blue.
