Know before you buy
A Sujihiki is a Japanese-style slicer designed primarily for carving meats and slicing boneless fish. Its long, narrow blade allows you to make clean, single-stroke cuts, which helps preserve the texture and moisture of the protein.
No, this knife is not dishwasher safe. The high-quality Japanese stainless steel and the handle construction require hand washing and immediate drying to maintain the blade's edge and prevent damage to the handle.
The UX10 series uses a high-grade Swedish stainless steel alloy that is specifically formulated to offer the sharpness and edge retention of high-carbon steel while maintaining the corrosion resistance of stainless steel. It is designed to be easier to maintain than traditional high-carbon Japanese knives.
The Misono UX10 Sujihiki features a double-bevel edge, making it suitable for both right-handed and left-handed users. This design is generally more versatile and easier to sharpen than traditional single-bevel Japanese knives.
Because this knife is made of high-quality, hard steel, it is best maintained using a whetstone. Avoid using pull-through sharpeners or honing steels with aggressive serrations, as these can damage the specialized edge geometry.
The 9.4-inch length is standard for a slicer and is ideal for carving roasts, slicing large fish fillets, or portioning cooked meats. If you have limited counter space, ensure you have a cutting board long enough to accommodate the full length of the blade for safe slicing.
