    Basic Models Sujihiki (Made To Order)

     Price range: $25.00 through $50.00

    “Basic Models”  knives are made to order in intervals of 8 weeks, or 10 orders, whichever comes first

    These are my “Basic Models Sujihiki”, like the “Basic Models” gyutos, santokus, bunka, nakiri and cleavers they are the most basic and affordable knives I can produce

     

    They feature:

    -Burned oak handles from reclaimed wood
    -Low, high bevels
    -Convex zero grinds, hand sharpened
    -Nail flexing edges
    -As quenched finishes
    -1.6mm blade stock
    -Forward balance
    -~38/39mm tall
    -AEB-L stainless steel or 52100 Carbon steel
    -Rounded spines and choils
    -Weights in the <180g range (150gr for a 270mm)
    -Excellent food release
    -Cutting ability close to more extensively ground blades
    – ~$225 CAD and below price point for most offerings

    I have tested the Basics Models sujihiki and I have to say, part of me is a bit irritated at just how well they do considering how rough they are. They aren’t pretty, and they’re not intended to be, and tip cuts aren’t quite as smooth as they would be on blades with more taper, but these are undoubtedly performers.

    *Basic Models” knives generally feature some dimpling from mechanical straightening.

    250mm ProCut San-Mai Gyuto

     $50.00

    A 250mm ProCut san mai gyuto

    I’ve been sitting on this one for a while and finally have it done. This 250mm ProCut gyuto is similar to a shorter blade I put out in February of this year  (posted HERE) and features the same kind of complex grind geometry and stonework.

     

    • Blade: 250mmx57mm ProCut/mild san-mai (64/65hrc) -stone set bevels + 2500 grit hand finish + etch and polish
    • Neck: 19mmx19mm
    • Handle: Wenge mono, oil finished and waxed
    • POB: 66mm from the handle
    • Spine: 3.94mm at the handle, 3.25mm at halfway, .78mm 1cm from the tip
    • Grind: full convex zero grind
    • Weight: 252g
    • Relieved choil and spine
    • Edge: .10mm@1mm, .23mm @2mm, 1.65mm at the shinogi measured at the midpoint,

    As you can see the banding isn’t quite as prominent in this blade despite using the ame cladding material. I suspect this is due to the higher austenitizing temperature I used for ProCut vs the SheffCut in the last one. Nonetheless it has a distinct pattern in the cladding that I only wish I could highlight more.

    *The cladding does indeed get close to the edge but at no point touches it

    Any US Tariffs will be prepaid by myself in full.
