Kanetsugu Miyabi Issin Sujihiki Knife 210 mm

The long and slender blade of the Kanetsugu Miyabi Issin Sujihiki 210 mm knife will be an excellent tool for slicing thin pieces of meat, filleting fish, or preparing sushi. Knives from the Kanetsugu Miyabi Issin series are made of high-carbon stainless steel in a SAN-MAI (three-layer) construction. Forging in the SAN-MAI technique means that the knife’s core is made of hard, high-carbon steel (AUS-8), which is clad with soft steel (SUS-410). Thanks to this method, the hard core of (AUS-8) is protected by outer layers of soft steel (SUS-410), which also provides additional flexibility. In the hardening process, Miyabi Issin knives achieve a hardness of 57-58 HRC, thanks to which they hold their sharpness for a long time and are easy to re-sharpen. The handle is made of natural brown rosewood and reinforced with two rivets. The wood used to produce the handle has been properly impregnated – it is resistant to moisture and temperature. The knives from the Miyabi Issin series are an excellent value for money. They are an ideal choice for both professionals and cooking enthusiasts who are just starting their adventure with Japanese knives. Seki Kanetsugu is a well-known kitchen knife manufacturer from the city of Seki in Japan. The company was founded in 1919 by Matsujiro Kawamura, a descendant of Kanetsugu, a famous maker of samurai swords (1336-1392).
