For our new Fu-Rin-Ka-Zan Brand Wa Series, we have closely worked with Master Forge-Smith Master Yamamoto in Takefu City where has been famous for traditional hammer forged knives (Echizen Uchi-Hamono).
Here are the impressive Traditional forged knives from Master Yamamoto, using the Special Powdered High Speed Tool Steel material “R-2”, a proven steel for outstanding cutting performance with a longer edge retention and good rust resistance (easy maintenance).
We have requested Master Yamamoto to use R-2 Powdered high speed tool steel material with his fine hammer forging process. His hammer forging technique makes the steel components finer and stabilized for much better cutting performance, resulting this R-2 blade is comparable with other famous powdered steels "ZDP-189 and Cowry-X" in term of the edge retention.
It also features Master Yamamoto’s original method and idea of Damascus blade with repeated circled layers. He called this unique Damascus layered patterns as “Uzushio”(whirlpools)
Sparkling white & silver (nickel) vortex Damascus layers patterns in Dark Grayish Colored blade are elegantly matches with beautiful natural wood texture of Octagon Shape Red-Sandalwood handle with Black Pakka Wood ferrules.
For those who demand extra cutting performance over the stainless steel blade, and for those who seek something more Japanese Traditional taste, unique Damascus knives, we are proud to introduce and recommend this traditional forged knife.
The long, narrow, graceful blade of the Sujihiki is particularly useful for trimming away sinew and fat from meat, finely slicing meat or boneless fish, or for filleting and skinning fish. The long blade allows the meat or fish to be cut in one single drawing motion, from heel to tip.

This knife comes with 50/50 double bevel edge geometry for both right and left handed use.
For your information, Japanese Kitchen knives are generally designed for right hand use with a slightly thicker and rounded grinding on the right side blade and a less rounded (almost straight flat) grinding on the left side blade. However, both right and left hander can use the knives that have double bevel edge sharpened 50/50 without problems.
We believe the quality and cutting performance of Japanese knives are the best in the world, and hope you enjoy fine craftsmanship and sharp edge with your new knife. With proper cares, every Japanese knife should be your special cooking partner for long times.
