The long, pointed SUJIHIKI knife from Miyabi is expertly crafted for slicing meat and fish with precision and ease. Designed with an ergonomic handle, it offers a comfortable grip and allows for effortless cutting at various angles. Its core is made from micro carbide MC63 powder steel, encased between two layers of steel for exceptional durability.

The double-edged blade is forged into an authentic Japanese shape and hand-honed using the traditional Honbazuke technique, ensuring razor-sharp performance. The slightly curved, swan-neck handle is crafted from cocobolo pakkawood, providing a smooth, natural feel in hand. An internal weight system enhances balance, making it ideal for a variety of cutting techniques.
