About this shape

Sujihiki knives are the equivalent to a European slicer with a few differences. First, the blade is typically thinner and made out of a harder steel, allowing for better edge retention. Additionally, the bevel on the blade is sharpened at a steeper angle, allowing for a more precise cut. Sujihiki can be used for filleting, carving and general slicing purposes.



Handle material Ebony
Blade length 240mm (9.4")
Thickness at spine 2mm
Thickness at tip 1.3mm
Hardness (Rockwell scale) 60
Bevel / Edge Double (50/50)
Blade Height 40mm
  • Handwash in warm water and towel dry
  • Do not cut frozen foods
  • Use a sharpening stone, not a honing steel, to re-sharpen your Japanese chef knives
