Sujihiki

"Sujihiki" in Japanese literally means "flesh slicer" and is also known as "Japnese Carving Knife".
It is mainly used for cutting meat. Its long and narrow blade is easy to control when cutting a block of meat and cutting curvely along the stripes. Many people use it as a slicer, and some cooks use it as a sashimi knife.

Many use the 300 mm model for cutting large blocks, such as butcher shops. For the restuarants which often slice meat into small pieces such as Yakiniku (BBQ) restuarants, the 270 mm model is more popular. The 240 mm knife is suitable for those with a smaller work volume or those who work with smaller blocks of meat.

VG1

Stainless Steel

VG1 stainless steel is a high quality steel that has been used extensively in knife making. It features a high hardness and is manufactured with advanced steel making techniques, resulting in a steel with low impurities.
It can be a little difficult to sharpen but will hold its edge for longer than some other steels so it is recommended for people after a blade that will stay sharp for longer.

Handle

Full Steel

Forging Process

A full steel blade or Mono-Steel blade means that only one type of steel has been used in its construction from spine to edge. Making knives with a single steel type requires expert attention during the manufacturing process to ensure the blade does not become overly brittle or warped. Differentiating a high quality Mono-Steel Blade from a low quality Mono-Steel blade can be quite difficult at a quick glance.

A knife store that has supported the history of knives and food culture in Japan.

It has been 600 years since the birth of swordmaking in the Sakai region of Japan. Sakai Ichimonji Mitsuhide's and it's craftsmen continue to build on that legacy by producing the finest blades in Japan.
This is where the culture of completing a dish of sashimi by "just cutting" and the culture of expressing sharpness as "taste" was born.
For 70 years, we have been connecting the spirit of Sakai's craftsmen with the passion of chefs in Osaka's kitchen equipment shopping district, known as the kitchen of Japan.
We are very happy that our knives can be used by people all over the world.
