While sujihiki knives can be either gyuto-style or boning-knife-style in shape, this knife appears to be the boning-knife style.

There were many rust spots, which have been repaired, but small rust spots (pitting) and scratches could not be completely removed.
There is a slight gap on the back of the handle.
We recommend it if you don't mind these imperfections.

Although it is a slender sujihiki, it is popular due to its versatility and sells out quickly, so please consider purchasing it soon.

The flat and cutting edges are almost mirror-finished.
It is also lightweight and generally in good condition.

Its size makes it recommended for both professionals and general households.

The whetstone used for finishing is Kitayama 8000 grit and Shapton 12000 grit.
It is in excellent cutting condition and ready for immediate use.
