HADO Ginsan Urushi Kijiro Sujihiki 240 mm

The beautiful Hado Ginsan Kijiro Sujihiki kitchen knife, with a blade length of 240 mm, is primarily used for slicing. Thanks to its slim profile, it is ideal for preparing sushi or portioning meat, steaks, etc.

The Hado Ginsan Kijiro collection of high-quality Japanese kitchen knives is made entirely by hand. Shogou Yamatsuka forges the blades, while Tadataka Maruyama is responsible for finishing and sharpening each knife. Ginsan (Silver #3) steel is used for the core. The outer layers are made of stainless steel cladding. The exceptionally hard blades are the result of hardening to a level of approx. 62-63 HRC. In addition, the hardening process used, together with the heat treatment of the steel, ensures that each knife is easy to sharpen and remains sharp for a long time. They have an octagonal handle made of cherry wood. It is very handy and aesthetically finished (painted with a special Japanese Kijiro varnish).

All Hado kitchen knives are suitable for professional use and will be perfect for those who demand the highest quality – both professional chefs and cooking enthusiasts who appreciate the artistry of Japanese blacksmithing.
