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

Compound Grind

A category covering blades ground with more than one geometry stacked into a single cross-section — typically a convex (or flat) primary bevel at the very edge, with one or more hollows ground higher up the blade face to relieve material behind it. The aim is food release and reduced wedging: the hollow opens an air gap so dense produce breaks away from the blade instead of clinging to it, while the convex steel at the edge keeps the apex strong and the knife driving through the cut.

The named variations in the Modern Cooking catalogue differ in where the hollows sit, how many there are, and whether the two faces are ground alike:

S-Grind — a convex primary bevel at the edge with a hollow ground into both faces just above it. The symmetrical "S"-shaped cross-section is the classic food-release grind: relief above the edge, strength at the edge.

C-Grind — an asymmetric S-grind. Both faces keep the convex primary bevel, but only one face carries the hollow above it. The single-sided relief biases food release to one side, and is simpler to grind and to maintain than a full S.

B-Grind — a stacked twin-hollow grind: a tight, narrow hollow immediately above the edge, with a second, broader and wider hollow above that. The staged relief gives especially strong food release across the height of the blade.

S-Hook Grind — also called a hook, harpoon, or J grind. An S-grind taken to an extreme, with the hollow placed very close to the cutting edge. The aggressive near-edge relief gives outstanding food release, at the price of being the most maintenance-sensitive of the family.

Asymmetrical-B Grind — a B-grind in which the twin-hollow structure is carried on one face while the other is ground differently (or left without the upper hollow), off-setting the edge. It combines the staged food release of a B-grind with the handed, steering character of an asymmetric grind.

In every case the gain is food release and reduced drag, and the shared cost is sharpening: as the edge is thinned over the knife's life, maintenance eventually reaches the hollowed steel, which cannot be flattened on a stone the way a convex or flat bevel can. How soon that happens depends on how deeply the hollows are cut and how close to the edge they sit — exactly what separates a gentle S-grind from an aggressive S-hook. These are high-craft geometries, prized by makers and experienced users for their cutting feel, and best appreciated by a cook who maintains their own edges.

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.
