Stats

Length - 300mmHeight (at heel) - 45mm

Steel - O-1

Hardness - Rc60-61

Handle Style - Yo (hidden tang western)

Handle Materials - Dyed Hawaiian Mango with Buffalo Horn Ferrule & G10 spacers


The handle is made from dyed Hawaiian mango (from Mr. BurlSource) and is something that has to be seen in person to appreciate. The pictures don't come close (by a long shot) to showing the depth this wood has and there's a ton of movement from every angle (3D). The color started of as black but faded towards the inside of the block to reveal a silvery metallic look which I like a lot.

I shot hundreds of pictures in all sorts of lighting conditions trying to not only show the depth of the wood but to accurately represent the knife the way it looks in real life. Like I said above, the handle doesn't look anywhere near as nice (in the pics) as it does in hand but the pics do show the coloring well enough. *Note - The lighter colored spacers aren't white, they're actually gray, but show lighter in the pics than in real life.

This is a very nice sujihiki....simple & clean with just a splash of bling.

Price - $650 (shipping included to USA / International will pay all costs over $25) If you're interested in purchasing this knife please contact via PM or email along with your Paypal email address (for the invoice). If international, please specify country.

You are getting weaker....I can feel it! ump

 

Beautiful knife Dave. Love the handle and always a fan of k-tip sujis. What's your grind like on your sujis (heavier/laserlike/thick spine but thin behind edge/somewhere in between)?

 

Hi Bob,
If I could grind the perfect suji it would be thick at the spine (yet only as thick as it needs to be) to be non-flexible, tapering towards the tip (the k-tip helps to get a thin grind in that section), and wide bevel for thin behind the edge food release. That's what I try for.

I also want a suji to be as good on the board as it is off hand. My sujis are board freindly.

Thanks for the question.

Dave
