Are you searching for a protein slicer that's both distinctive and exquisitely sharp? Assembled at Kakushin's Knife Shop, this custom piece features a unique hybrid western wa-handle design and a Shirogami White #1 blade, also known as White Paper Steel, forged in Japan at Hokiyama in the province of Tosa. The blade, from the Hakusui series, comes with a handmade, see-through tip wa-handle, combining artistic design with impressive steel performance.
Sujihiki knives are designed for slicing nearly any type of boneless protein. The name translates to Flesh Slicer and is extremely popular in North America. While many use the long and thin blade to cut large roasts, others use it on fish and vegetables.
