Blade Hardness
HRC (Rockwell Hardness) measures how hard the blade's steel is. Kitchen knife steel typically falls in the high-50s to mid-60s on this scale. Harder steel is built to hold a fine edge over long use, while softer steel favors flexibility and easy resharpening. The right HRC depends on the steel and design, not a single higher-is-better number.
Stain Resistant
This steel resists rust and staining from moisture and acidic foods, making it easy to maintain with routine care.
Saya Cover
This knife comes with its saya cover included at no additional cost, shaped to its exact blade for the same custom fit customers pay extra for on other knives.

Product Details
The turquoise blue edition of our VG-10 Sujihiki sets a turquoise bolster on an octagonal ebony handle, with a 9.5" (240mm) slicing blade. Its VG-10 stainless core at 60 HRC within 46 hammered Damascus layers reduces drag through roasts and fish for neat, even slices. A magnetic maple saya is included.
The octagonal ebony handle, complemented by a turquoise blue bolster, is carefully handcrafted for a comfortable grip, ensuring balance and control as you slice through meats, fish, and vegetables with precision. The handle's ergonomic design allows for extended use without discomfort, providing a seamless experience in high-paced kitchen environments.
This knife is easy to maintain and will easily glide through foods, thanks to its thinner blade compared to traditional German knives. A magnetic maple wood Saya cover is included to protect the blade when not in use. This knife is highly recommended for anyone looking to elevate their slicing game, offering both beauty and performance. For optimal maintenance, we recommend using a sharpening stone.
