Ein sehr klassisches Sujihiki-Profil hier mit einer leichten Verjüngung und einer schön dünnen und scharfen Kante. Die Klingenlänge von 240 mm ist perfekt für die meisten Anwendungsfälle, wie das Tranchieren von Braten, das Portionieren von Fisch oder das Schneiden von Terrinen.

Mit Edelstahl ummantelt, um den Shirogami-Kern zu schützen, und mit einem klassischen Yoshikane-Nashiji- oder Birnenhaut-Finish versehen, finden wir, dass es eine hübsch aussehende Klinge ist, und wir haben diese schönen Klingen mit einem Mono-Stahl-Palisandergriff gepaart. Die Küchenmesser von Yoshikane gehören zu den preiswertesten und hochwertigsten Messern überhaupt. Wenn Sie nach einem Sujihiki-Hobel suchen, werden wir mit dieser schönen handgeschmiedeten Option aus Japan sehr zufrieden sein.

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

Shirogami #2

Pure plain carbon steel

Typical HRC

Corrosion class
Carbon
Production
Conventional
Origin
Japan (Hitachi YSS / Proterial)

Shirogami #2 — White Paper #2 — is a hair less carbon-heavy than its sibling and substantially more user-friendly. About 1.05 to 1.15 percent carbon with the same restrictive impurity controls makes it the most-asked-for white paper in working kitchen knives, particularly in the Sakai and Tosa traditions.

For the cook, White #2 is the steel that defines what a clean carbon edge feels like: a fast burr that wipes off cleanly, a glassy refined apex, and the kind of feedback at the stone that most makers consider a benchmark for the apprentice. It runs at 62–64 HRC, holds an edge longer than 1084 but less than 52100 or Aogami #1, and is genuinely as easy to sharpen as any kitchen knife steel in current use.

It will patina readily and rust if neglected, and it is unforgiving of the dishwasher in the way every clean carbon is. In return, it offers one of the most direct, satisfying experiences a hand-finished kitchen knife can deliver. Among the makers Modern Cooking carries, Yoshikane Hamono, Masamoto Sohonten, and Hado Knives work in Shirogami #2. White #2 is — alongside Aogami #2 — the most representative of the Hitachi tradition.

Blade construction

Laminated Steel

A category covering knives built from multiple layers of different steels forge-welded together. The hard cutting steel is sandwiched between softer outer layers (cladding) that protect the core, add toughness, and often contribute visual contrast.

The most common laminated constructions in the Modern Cooking catalogue are:

SanMai (三枚) — three layers: hard cutting steel in the centre, softer cladding on both sides. The traditional and most common form.

GoMai (五枚) — five layers: a hard core, two intermediate layers, and two outer layers. Adds visual depth and structural complexity.

KuMai (九枚) — nine layers: similar logic, with more cladding layers for additional pattern and structural variation.

GoMai and KuMai are often chosen not only for the additional layers and visual depth, but also because the intermediate layers can act as a nickel diffusion barrier — limiting carbon migration out of the core into the cladding during forge welding, and protecting the core's intended carbon content through the heat of the forging process.

In all cases the cutting performance is determined by the core steel; the outer layers are cosmetic and structural. The lamination contributes corrosion protection (when a stainless jacket clads a carbon core), reduced reactivity, and the visible boundary between core and cladding that gives the knife its character.

Grind

Flat

A grind in which the blade tapers in a straight line from the spine down toward the edge, with no curve or hollow in the bevel. The flat grind is the most common geometry on modern double-bevel kitchen knives because it balances cutting performance and durability: thin enough behind the edge to slice well, with enough steel behind it to stay strong.

A true full flat grind, running from spine to edge, is keen but can wedge in dense produce as the food meets the widening blade; many kitchen knives use a partial flat grind that begins lower on the blade to manage that. The flat grind's appeal is its predictability — it sharpens straightforwardly, behaves consistently, and asks nothing unusual of the user.

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.
