Sujihiki

The SUJIHIKI Knife 

The term "SUJIHIKI" literally means "flesh slicer", which accurately reflects its function. The length of its blade allows for long, smooth cuts, while its width minimizes food adhesion. Primarily used for slicing thin cuts of meat and removing fish fillets, it also excels at delicately slicing charcuterie as well as cutting fruits and vegetables.

KONKETSU Handle

*White oak is characterized by its distinctive grain, water resistance as well as his density and exceptional durability.
Pippy oak is characterized by dormant buds beneath the bark. In case of damage, these buds help the tree regenerate; otherwise, they become part of the wood, giving that peppered grain and contributing to its rarity.
