About the Shape - “Sujihiki” translates to “Flesh Slicer” and it does exactly what the name suggests; perfect for carving and slicing roasts, turkey, raw meats, fish, and all other proteins and the extended blade length allows you to slice with one long stroke, instead of sliding the knife back and forth in a sawing motion. Making clean slices of brisket or ultra-thin applications like Carpaccio a breeze to execute.
About Ryusen Oukokuryu - Ryusen Hamono was founded in 1948 as a knife sharpening company. They worked with companies like Takefu Special Steel as early as the 1970s to develop high-quality knives made with stainless steel, at a time when most other knife makers were struggling to produce decent stainless steel knives. Now, they have expanded their collection of knives not only having sharpness and longevity in mind but with a sleek modern design.
The Oukokuryu (shining black dragon) series is the pinnacle of high-end Japanese knife design. The blade is forged from super-hard SG2 stainless steel, known for superior edge-retention and laser-sharpness. The ornate poplar handle is the crown jewel on the 98-layer damascus masterpiece.
