The Tsunehisa VG1 Sujihiki 270mm in Rosewood is made in Japan from VG1 stainless steel - a long, narrow slicing blade for carving roasts, slicing fish, and cutting through any large protein with a single clean pull-stroke, with a warm rosewood handle for a premium feel at the carving board.

The Sujihiki's long, narrow blade minimises surface contact with the protein, reducing friction and delivering thinner, more even slices than a gyuto ever could - no sawing, no tearing, no lost juices. At 270mm, this blade covers the full length of a large roast or whole side of salmon in a single pull-stroke. VG1 stainless holds a sharp, long-lasting edge with minimal maintenance. The tsuchime hammered finish further reduces sticking. Made in Japan by Tsunehisa.
