Miyabi 5000FCD 240mm Sujihiki - Japanese Damascus Slicing Knife

Product Overview

The Miyabi 5000FCD Sujihiki is a masterpiece of Japanese engineering, designed specifically for the delicate task of slicing proteins with surgical precision. Forged in the legendary knife-making capital of Seki, Japan, this 240mm slicer features a slender, elongated blade that allows for clean, single-stroke cuts through raw or cooked meats and fish. The blade's construction ensures that the texture and integrity of your ingredients are preserved, elevating both the flavor and presentation of your culinary work.

Exquisite Craftsmanship and Performance

At the heart of this knife is an FC61 fine carbide steel core, encased in 48 layers of stunning Damascus steel. This complex layering not only provides a mesmerizing floral pattern but also offers incredible durability and corrosion resistance. Each blade undergoes a specialized FRIODUR ice-hardening process at -70°C, resulting in an impressive Rockwell hardness of 61. This ensures that the edge remains razor-sharp through intensive use while maintaining the flexibility required for precision slicing.

Ergonomic Design and Balance

The handle is crafted from high-quality black Pakkawood, shaped in a traditional Japanese 'D' profile. This design offers an exceptionally comfortable and secure grip, reducing fatigue during long preparation sessions. A decorative mosaic pin and a stainless steel end cap provide the perfect balance and aesthetic finishing touch, making this knife as beautiful as it is functional.
