The Sujihiki knife is a traditional Japanese slicing knife featuring a long, slender blade—typically 240mm to 300mm—designed for precision and effortless slicing. Its thin, razor-sharp edge allows for smooth, clean cuts, making it perfect for filleting fish, slicing sushi, carving meats, and preparing roasts.

Engineered to minimize resistance while cutting, the Sujihiki provides exceptional control and accuracy. The blade may feature a slight curve or remain straight, giving chefs and home cooks the versatility to handle delicate tasks as well as professional slicing techniques.

This kitchen knife features a high-performance AUS-10A steel core clad in an intricately twisted Damascus pattern, delivering exceptional sharpness, reliable edge retention, and eye-catching visual depth. Known for its fine grain structure and ease of sharpening, AUS-10A steel offers an ideal balance of cutting performance, durability, and low maintenance—making it well suited for both professional chefs and serious home cooks.

The striking Damascus steel blade is paired with a lacquered octagonal burnt oak handle, providing a comfortable, secure grip while enhancing the knife’s refined aesthetic. Meticulous attention to fit and finish is evident throughout, including a rounded and polished spine and choil for added comfort during extended prep sessions.

With a thin, finely ground edge, this knife feels light, nimble, and highly responsive in hand, allowing for smooth, controlled cuts and precise slicing. Combining traditional Japanese craftsmanship with modern materials, this knife delivers outstanding performance and timeless design in a beautifully balanced cutting tool.

AUS-10A steel is a high-quality Japanese stainless steel, commonly used for making knives. Its typical composition is as follows:

  • Carbon (C): 0.95% - 1.05% (Increases hardness and edge retention)

  • Chromium (Cr): 13.00% - 15.00% (Enhances wear resistance and toughness)

  • Molybdenum (Mo): 0.80% (Improves strength and corrosion resistance)

  • Vanadium (V): 0.10% - 0.20% (Increases hardness and grain refinement for better sharpness)

  • Manganese (Mn): 0.50% (improves toughness, enhances hardness, and wear resistance)

  • Silicon (Si): 0.50% (Enhances strength and durability)

  • Nickel (Ni): 0.50% (enhances toughness)

  • Phosphorus (P): 0.03% (Kept low to prevent brittleness)

  • Sulfur (S): 0.03% (Minimizes impurities for better toughness)

This composition gives AUS-10A steel a great balance of hardness, edge retention, corrosion resistance, and toughness. It's ideal for high-performance knives, providing a sharp, durable edge that's relatively easy to maintain
