Product description
The Sushikiri knife is specifically designed for slicing sushi rolls and battera sushi without crushing them. The symmetrically curved blade allows for one rolling slice, resulting in clean and precise cuts.
This particular knife features a blade made of Shirogami No.2 steel, which is known for its fine grain structure and minimal impurities. This makes it an excellent choice for fine cutting tools such as traditional Japanese knives. The steel also has good edge retention and is easy to sharpen, making it a great choice for first-time users of Japanese knives.
The blade has a traditional Kasumi polished finish, which refers to the hazy appearance of the soft steel/iron cladding in contrast to the polished cutting edge. This finish is common on traditional Japanese blades and adds to the knife's elegant appearance.
The blade is double-edged and 240mm in length with a thickness of 3mm. The knife weighs 450g and features a Buffalo Magnolia handle. The knife is made in Sakai City in Osaka Prefecture, known for its rich history in Japanese knife-making.
