Das einzigartige CNC-gefräste "Denty"-Muster, das Kurouchi-Finish und das von Hand geschliffene Abzeichen mit satinierter Kante lassen diese Klinge aus 52100 Monostahl fantastisch aussehen. Alles über diesen 240-mm-Sujihiki-Hobel vom Kunsthandwerkerduo Luke und Danae Scheepers schreien nach Luxus! Jede Kante ist perfekt verarbeitet und fühlt sich glatt an. Die Wirbelsäule und der Choil haben ein mattes Kurouchi-ähnliches Finish, das glatt ist, aber auch ein sicheres Griffgefühl vermittelt. Das von Hand geschliffene Satin-Kantenband kontrastiert wunderbar mit dem schwarzen Kurouchi "Denty"-Finish, ein wirklich schönes Stück funktionaler Kunst.

Der 52100 Stahl wurde auf 62+ HRC gehärtet und die Kante fühlt sich schön scharf an, dieses Ding schneidet wie ein Champion. 52100 ist ein Stahl mit hohem Kohlenstoffgehalt und nimmt eine sehr schöne Kante an und die Retention ist sehr anständig. Alles an diesem Profil schreit nach Slicer, diejenigen, die nach einem Slicer suchen, werden ein wenig enttäuscht sein, aber die Slicing-Leistung wird aus den Charts herausragen, und dafür ist ein Sujihiki schließlich konzipiert.

Bei all der schönen Designarbeit, die in die Klinge dieses Messers gesteckt wurde, vergisst man leicht den Griff, aber die Scheepers haben das überhaupt nicht vergessen. Der Griff ist ein einfacher, aber eleganter Griff aus schwarzem Papiermicarta mit einem handgefrästen Messingkropf. Das Ergebnis ist ein schöner und komfortabler Griff, der nicht im Weg ist und die Klingen wirklich glänzen lässt. Das schwarze Papiermicarta liegt fantastisch in der Hand und ist ein super haltbares Material. Der maßgeschneiderte achteckige Griff hat die Winkel an den richtigen Stellen.

Hohe Leistung, perfekte Balance und schönes Design. Wenn Sie nach einem suchen Sujihiki , das ist einer, der Sie nicht enttäuschen wird.

Blade type

Sujihiki

筋引

A long, slender slicing knife — typically 240 to 300 mm — and the Japanese equivalent of a Western carving knife. The narrow blade and long, straight edge are built to part cooked and raw proteins in a single smooth draw, producing clean slices with minimal sawing and minimal tearing of the surface. Height is kept low so the blade tracks straight through the cut.

A sujihiki is a specialist, and a worthwhile one for anyone who carves roasts, portions fish, or slices proteins regularly. Its length and narrowness make it poor for general board work and chopping, so it lives alongside a chef's knife rather than instead of one. The reward for that dedicated slot is slices a shorter, taller knife simply cannot match.

Cutting edge steel

52100

Low-alloy chromium bearing/tool steel

Typical HRC
61–65
Corrosion class
Carbon
Production
Conventional
Origin
United States (AISI 52100); identical to 1.3505 and 100Cr6

52100 is the most respected non-stainless steel in the Western kitchen knife tradition — a chrome-bearing alloy that began life as a ball-bearing grade and has, over decades of custom-maker use, become a reference for what a thoughtful carbon steel should feel like. Roughly one percent carbon and one and a half percent chromium put it just below the stainless threshold but well within the territory where chromium meaningfully refines grain and tightens the carbide structure.

A good 52100 kitchen knife typically lands between 62 and 63 HRC. It sharpens with little drama on almost any stone, takes an edge as clean as the simple carbons, and holds it for longer thanks to those Cr-rich carbides. Toughness is excellent for the hardness — published comparative data positions it as one of the better-balanced carbon steels available, especially when the heat treat includes the cryogenic treatment that this steel rewards. It will patina, but more politely than a white paper, and it is forgiving enough that a single rinse-and-dry routine is usually enough.

52100 is the canonical choice for cooks who love carbon-steel feel but want a touch more refinement than 1084, W2, or even 80CrV2. It dominates the American custom scene and shows up across high-end stock-removal work from a wide range of forging custom shops. Among the makers Modern Cooking carries, Fredrik Spåre, Brook Turner, and Nordquist Designs work in 52100. Note that it is the same alloy as German 1.3505 and the European 100Cr6; if a maker tells you they have used one, they have used all three.

Also known as:1.3505, 100Cr6

Blade construction

Mono Steel

A knife forged from a single piece of steel — no laminations, no clad layers. The simplest and most direct construction. The entire blade is the cutting steel, with no softer outer jacket to protect or contrast it. Most contemporary Western kitchen knives in carbon and stainless steel are mono-steel constructions, as are honyaki and most European bladesmith work.

The trade-off is straightforward: mono-steel knives are easier to forge, sharpen, and reason about, but the entire blade carries the cutting steel's properties — including its reactivity if it's a clean carbon. There is no soft jacket to protect a more brittle core from impact, so the heat treatment and geometry have to do all the work.

Grind

Convex

A grind whose bevel bulges outward in a gentle curve from spine to edge, rather than running flat. That extra steel directly behind the edge makes a convex grind notably strong and resistant to chipping, while the curved geometry helps food release and lets the blade glide through dense ingredients with less wedging than a flat grind.

The strength comes at the cost of ultimate thinness and ease of maintenance. A convex edge has more metal behind it, so it is not quite as effortlessly keen as a thinly flat-ground edge, and it is harder to sharpen freehand — holding the curve takes a stropping technique or a deliberate hand rather than a single fixed angle. The reward is an exceptionally tough, smooth-cutting edge.

Handle construction

Hidden Tang

A construction in which the tang runs into the handle but stays concealed inside it, rather than showing between two scales. A narrower tang — a full-length stick or a shorter projection — is set into a drilled or burned channel in a one-piece handle and secured with adhesive, a friction fit, or a threaded fitting drawn up against the blade. This is the traditional construction of Japanese wa-handles and many European hidden-tang knives.

The design puts the handle material in charge of the look and feel: a single piece of wood, horn, or composite — often with a ferrule or spacers at the front — is shaped into any cross-section the maker wants, from the classic octagonal and D-shaped wa profiles to fully rounded Western forms. With no steel showing along the grip, the handle can be slim and light, and is frequently made to be removed and replaced, with the balance sitting toward the blade.

Product Care

Cleaning: Clean by hand with warm water. Avoid wetting the handle when possible.

Sharpening: We advise using whetstones to sharpen your knives and a honing rod or steel to maintain the burr between sharpening sessions.

Reactive Steels: Reactive steels like Aogami Super, Apex Ultra or premium reactive German and Swedish steels are susceptible to rust if not properly cared for. Keep the knife dry between uses and when storing for longer periods, wiping the blade with Tsubaki oil or another food-safe oil is a wise choice. A patina can be a beautiful personal feature on your knife and helps to stop rust forming.

Handle Care: For non-stabilised wooden handles, apply Tsubaki oil or another food-safe oil from time to time. Food-safe wax can be applied to both stabilised and non-stabilised wooden handles. Never apply hot wax or oil as you risk warping or damaging the handle.
