The sujihiki 240 mm in SLD steel from the Hitohira TD line is built for long drawing cuts through whole pieces: roasted meats, poultry, fish fillets. Its long, narrow blade with a low profile allows continuous passes from heel to tip without any sawing motion. The reduced blade height limits friction on protein fibers and preserves texture during slicing. The 240 mm format suits both professional kitchens and intensive home use.

Forged in Sanjo, Niigata Prefecture, this sujihiki belongs to Hitohira's TD line. Sanjo is one of Japan's most active forging regions, with a long tradition of professional-grade knives spanning several centuries. The blade features a tsuchime finish on the body, with irregular hammer marks that contrast with the polished edge. Kanji are engraved on the blade. The octagonal wa-handle is in walnut, with a light-toned fine-grain wood ferrule bridging the dark handle and the blade.

SLD is a tool steel forged in Sanjo, used here in a sanmai construction with a stainless steel cladding. Its chromium content of approximately 5% provides better corrosion resistance than pure carbon steel, without reaching the behavior of a standard stainless. It sharpens like a carbon steel: it responds well to the stone and reaches a fine edge with consistent passes. Quality water stones are recommended to get the most from this steel. SLD develops little to no patina, which simplifies daily maintenance while still requiring attention after use in wet conditions.

Care

Rinse and dry after each use. Do not leave the blade in contact with moisture for extended periods. Never wash in a dishwasher.

Product notes

Please take note

Each handle is unique and may exhibit distinct variations, such as differences in shades or colors in the buffalo horn, which is part of its authentic and handcrafted character.

Guarantee

Every knife carries a lifetime warranty against obvious manufacturing issues. For example, if the handle peels or cracks after a few weeks of proper use. Or if the blade develops a crack from the edge to the spine. These issues are rare, but can occur. In such cases, you will be offered an exchange for the same product or a refund. Since each case is different, it is at our discretion to assess whether our lifetime warranty against obvious manufacturing issues applies.

INTRODUCTION

The Sujihiki, which translates to "flesh slicer" in Japanese, is a versatile knife that deserves a place in your collection. It is specifically designed for slicing boneless proteins. With its long, narrow, double-beveled blade, the Sujihiki effortlessly slices through fish and meat, minimizing friction and preserving the integrity of each ingredient.

MAIN USE AND CHARACTERISTICS

The Sujihiki knife is primarily used for slicing fish, meat, boneless meats, and tender vegetables. Its narrow blade allows for easy and precise slicing, making it particularly useful for raw fish dishes. The knife's design allows for very thin slices in a single motion, avoiding friction as each slice is smoothly cut. The Sujihiki knife is characterized by its double edge, making it suitable for both left- and right-handed users. It has a long, narrow blade with a pointed tip, typically 240 to 300 mm long and 30 to 40 mm high.

LIMITS OF USE

It is important to note that the Sujihiki is primarily a slicing knife and is not intended for heavy-duty tasks or general use. It excels at slicing and carving boneless meats and fish, rather than being a versatile chef's knife. It should not be used for cutting other ingredients or hard foods. Using the Sujihiki on foods other than meat or fish risks quickly dulling the blade, so it is best reserved for specialized slicing tasks to fully appreciate its unique qualities.

ORIGINS AND CONCLUSION

The origin of the Sujihiki knife dates back to Japan, where it is considered a Western version of the traditional Japanese Yanagiba knife. The Yanagiba has long been used in Japanese cuisine to slice boneless proteins, particularly in the preparation of sushi and sashimi. As Japanese cuisine spread worldwide, the need arose for a knife capable of meeting both Japanese and Western culinary techniques. Thus, the Sujihiki was born, combining the precision and sharpness of the Yanagiba with a design that appeals to Western chefs and cooks. Today, the Sujihiki knife is a testament to the fusion of culinary traditions and exemplifies adaptability and innovation in the world of kitchen cutlery. In conclusion, the Sujihiki knife is a versatile and essential tool for any kitchen. Its long, narrow, double-beveled blade effortlessly slices through boneless proteins, minimizing friction and preserving the freshness of each ingredient. While it has limitations in terms of heavy-duty tasks and general use, its specialized slicing capabilities make it a valuable addition to any kitchen's arsenal. Whether you're a professional chef or a home cook, the Sujihiki knife deserves a place in your kitchen for precise and delicate slicing tasks.
