Samura Bamboo Steak Knife 110 mm

The Samura Bamboo steak knife is made for meat and gives you a confident cut. Its 110 mm blade suits steak and other meat, and you can use it for fish too. The thin steel blade and the bamboo-shaped steel handle give the knife a light, all-metal build.

Blade and steel

The blade is made from a single layer of AUS-8 stainless steel, hardened to 58–59 HRC. This hardness gives you a practical balance: the edge holds up well to everyday cutting, and when it needs attention, it is straightforward to restore on a whetstone. AUS-8 is a corrosion-resistant stainless steel, but the knife still needs washing and drying by hand, as described below.

The double-bevel edge is a plain V-edge, ground on both sides.

Handle and balance

The silver handle is made of stainless steel and shaped like a bamboo stalk, the signature of the series. It is hollow, and together with the thin blade this keeps the knife light: it weighs 55 g and measures 218 mm overall. The handle sits comfortably in your palm and gives you a secure grip.

Best uses

• Cutting steak
• Slicing boneless meat
• Cutting fish

Care and sharpening

Rinse the knife with hot water and wipe it dry before first use. Wash it by hand with non-abrasive materials and wipe it dry; a dishwasher is not recommended, and do not leave it in the sink for long. Cut on wooden or plastic boards, never on glass, and leave bones to a SAMURA cleaver and frozen food to a double-sided saw knife with a serrated blade. Store the knife in a brush block or knife holder where the blade does not touch metal items, use a honing rod between sharpenings and resharpen on a whetstone at the original factory bevel angle of 15–17°.
