High Speed Steel is currently recognized as one of the most advanced stainless steels available for high-end kitchen knives. Notably, it contains a significant amount of Cobalt (8%) in its alloy, which contributes to its impressive wear resistance and durability. Originally designed for industrial cutting tools, this steel now excels in the kitchen, offering long-lasting edge retention for serious chefs.

Forging kitchen knives with High Speed Steel is a demanding process that few manufacturers attempt. Due to the material's hardness and technical requirements, heat treatment is especially critical. During this stage, the steel reaches temperatures exceeding 1200 degrees Celsius—unlocking the full potential of the alloy and producing remarkable results. It is this exact process that gives the Yoshihiro High Speed Steel Sujihiki-Kiritsuke its exceptional performance characteristics.

Our Yoshihiro HAP40 High Speed Stainless Steel Sujihiki-Kiritsuke is a state-of-the-art, handcrafted Japanese chef's knife. The HAP40 (Funmatsu Haisu) Stainless Steel is poised to be one of the finest steels on the stainless knife market, maximizing both cutting performance and edge retention. With a Rockwell hardness (HRC) of 65-66, this knife not only achieves but maintains a superior edge for an extended period. The high-speed stainless steel core is clad with a softer stainless steel, providing exceptional toughness and unmatched edge retention. The knife features a traditional ebony handle with double buffalo bolsters, ensuring a balanced and comfortable grip—making it ideal for professionals engaged in daily high-volume prep work for extended hours.

As one of the most essential tools in any chef's collection, the Sujihiki knife is designed for precision slicing. From preparing fresh fish fillets to carving roast chicken, even the simplest tasks are elevated by this beautifully crafted knife. The Sujihiki-Kiritsuke slicer excels at fabricating large roasts and slicing vegetables like cucumbers or smoked salmon. It's perfect for table-side carving during special occasions and holidays. To maintain its performance, hand wash with a mild cleanser. Each knife is handmade by skilled artisans in Japan, ensuring the highest quality and craftsmanship.
