    Basic Models Sujihiki (Made To Order)

     Price range: $205.00 through $230.00

    “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.
