It’s said that this knife is made from the stream of sparks and flames surrounding a resurrecting phoenix, with the 8 inch chef’s knife featuring a custom Phoenix Damascus VG10 blade, with phoenix flames trapped within the steel itself.

It’s about balance. Not hard enough and the edge of the blade will bend and will need to be honned often. Too hard and the edge of the blade will chip and will need to be resharpened (or you straight up need a new knife if it’s bad enough). Even just dropping the knife could result in a chipped edge if its too hard. However, some people prefer it since it won’t lose its edge as fast.
