Hand-forged in Kochi, Japan by Toru Tamura, this 240mm sujihiki has an Aogami #2 core with iron cladding. The iron cladding shows subtle banding. At 240mm, this is a compact slicer, suited to those who prefer a nimble, maneuverable Japanese slicing knife over the longer 270mm or 300mm.
Although this is technically a sujihiki, it can function as a multipurpose knife. It can take on certain gyuto-type tasks, so some would reasonably call it a "slim gyuto" instead. It is not uncommon for some pros to use a 240mm sujihiki as their main all-purpose blade instead of a gyuto. It cuts with less drag and feels light and nimble in hand.

Notes:
The photo shows one of the knives from our current stock, so it may not be the exact one you'll receive. Each knife is handmade, so no two are exactly alike. If you'd like to see the actual knife, email us at info@zahocho.com.
The degree of banding on the iron cladding varies from knife to knife. Some show more visible banding, others a fainter pattern.
Minor variations in finish, surface marks, and measurements are normal in handcrafted Japanese knives.
Handle is fitted by the maker and shipped as-is. We don't offer handle swaps.
