The Hitohira Shirogami #2 Migaki Sobakiri 330mm is a traditional Japanese knife designed for cutting soba and udon noodles. Its long, rectangular blade, combined with a flat back and straight edge, is specially designed to make even, precise cuts over long lengths of dough.
Forged from White #2 (Shirogami #2) steel, the blade offers exceptional sharpness and an extremely clean cut. This traditional Japanese carbon steel is particularly appreciated by artisans for its responsiveness and cutting performance. The migaki (satin polished) finish highlights the simplicity of the blade and makes it easier to maintain by reducing dough adhesion.
The walnut handle provides a natural and understated aesthetic, while ensuring good ergonomics for a safe and comfortable grip. The balance between the length of the blade and the lightness of the handle makes it an effective tool for noodle cutting masters.
This sobakiri is designed for straight, clean, and even cuts. Its long, thin White #2 blade perfectly meets the needs of artisans or Japanese cuisine enthusiasts looking for a tool dedicated to the preparation of traditional noodles.
