Description

This high-quality Sujihiki knife has an authentic Japanese blade profile and a strikingly beautiful damask design. It has a blade core of fine carbide steel for very good initial sharpness and cutting edge retention. This FC61 core is embedded in 48 layers of steel which make up the unique Damascus-design pattern on the blade.

Zwilling

The cutting edge is Honbazuke-honed which is a three-stage grinding, sharpening and polishing process that results in razor-like sharpness. The whole length of the cutting edge can be used as there is no finger guard. The smooth join between handle and bolster helps to prevent calluses forming on thumb and forefinger.

To look after your knife in the best way, hand wash only and maintain and sharpen using a whetstone. Using glass, ceramic or stone cutting boards should be avoided as this can prematurely dull the cutting edge, so we’d recommend cutting on a wooden board.

  • FC61 fine carbide steel blade core
  • 48 layers of steel surrounding the core create the Damascus-design
  • FRIODUR ice-hardened for hardness, corrosion-resistance & material elasticity
  • Rockwell hardness of approximately 61
  • Pakka wood handle
  • Steel mosaic pin and handle end cap
  • Symmetrically honed cutting edge
  • Ergonomically-shaped handle
  • Handcrafted in Seki Japan

    Lack of design and manufacturer error

    I'm a little bit disappointed by the quality of it to be honest. It looks like a manufacturer error happened or something. Now I have to go through the full send back process. It was visible from outside the box, they could have seen that error and they still sent it to me.

    Great and gorgeous blade. Handle is a bit small to my liking. Would have appreciated a full description of blade and handle length.
