Naozumi Carbon Steel Sujihiki 270mm (10.6")

Naozumi knives are made of SK Carbon Steel, which has earned the trust of professional chefs for generations. Often regarded as a predecessor to Japan’s renowned White Steel, it represents the roots of traditional Japanese blade-making. While it requires more care than stainless steel, it delivers exceptional sharpness and is remarkably easy to sharpen.

Its responsive nature on the whetstone allows chefs to fine-tune the bevel angle and edge profile to suit their own cutting style and preferences. The result is a knife that becomes more personal with every sharpening.

For those who appreciate not only using a knife, but also maintaining and refining it, SK Carbon Mono Steel brings back the simple satisfaction of working with carbon steel. This classic material continues to reward skill, care, and craftsmanship.
