Specifications
The Yoshikazu Ikeda Aogami #1 Damascus Sakimaru Sujihiki 330mm is a handcrafted Japanese slicing knife, forged by master blacksmith Yoshikazu Ikeda. This sujihiki knife features a core of Aogami #1, known for its exceptional sharpness and edge retention. Like other great Aogami #1 blades from renowned smiths, Ikeda-san’s heat treatment makes the steel easy to sharpen and allows it to take a fine edge. It’s a pleasure to sharpen, offering a smooth feel on sharpening stones without feeling glassy.
Yoshikazu Ikeda: The current chairman of the Sakai Dentoukougeishi ("Traditional Skilled Craftsman") Association, Ikeda-san began making kitchen knives in 1967 under his father’s guidance. In 1983, he established Ikeda Tanrenjo and became independent. His expertise lies in crafting Japanese knives specifically designed for professional use, and he is widely recognized for his exceptional Honyaki knives.
For the care and maintenance of Japanese knives, such as this Yoshikazu Ikeda Aogami #1 Damascus Sakimaru Sujihiki, please refer to our care guide.
Slight measurement variations are typical in handcrafted Japanese kitchen knives.
Minor cosmetic variations, such as light surface marks or fine scuffs, are common in handcrafted knives.
