An In Depth Look

Blade Type
Blade Type

The Sujihiki knife, a traditional Japanese slicer, is designed for carving and fileting. With its long, narrow blade, typically ranging from 240mm to 330mm, it excels in creating clean, smooth cuts through meat and fish. Its length ensures long, uninterrupted strokes, making it perfect for precise slicing tasks.

Steel Type
Steel Type Read

Japanese Blue Super Steel, an elite variant of the "Aogami" series, is a high-carbon steel alloyed with chromium, tungsten, and added vanadium. This composition enhances its wear resistance, edge retention, and overall toughness. It will still rust if left wet for too long, but not as quickly as any of the other carbon steels. Favored in fine knife crafting, Blue Super Steel is renowned for producing exceptionally sharp and durable Japanese knives.

Though not widely known internationally, Shiro Kamo holds a highly respected position among Japan’s knife-making elite. Awarded the prestigious title of Dento-Kogeshi (Master of Traditional Crafts) at just 45, a rare honour shared by only a handful of artisans in the Echizen area, including masters like Takeshi Saji and Katsushige Anryu, Kamo-san’s skill and dedication to traditional craftsmanship are exceptional.

Currently serving as the president of the renowned Takefu Knife Village Cooperative, Kamo-san produces knives admired for their consistently precise grinds, refined blade finishes, and meticulous attention to detail. His expertise with steels, particularly his celebrated heat treatment of R2 stainless steel, ensures blades with phenomenal cutting performance and outstanding edge retention.

Beautiful knife but not as sharp out of box.
Most of the times you expect a super blue knife to be literally razor sharp. That’s why 4 stars
