The Moritaka 9.4-inch Aogami #2 carbon steel sujihiki is a finely crafted Japanese knife designed for those who demand razor-sharp precision in slicing. Its hand-forged blade, made from high-quality Aogami (Blue #2) steel, offers excellent edge retention and a beautiful patina that develops over time. The octagonal walnut handle with a pakkawood ferrule provides a comfortable grip, making it ideal for delicate tasks like slicing fish or roast meats.
Whether you’re a home cook or a professional chef, this affordable carbon steel chef knife offers outstanding performance. The double-bevel edge, sharpened to 10-12°, is more robust than a single edge and less prone to chips or nicks, ensuring longevity and consistent results. Remember, since this is a carbon steel knife, proper care is essential—hand wash and dry thoroughly to prevent rust and enjoy its evolving patina as part of its charm.
