The details
A closer look
The Samura Butcher grand chef's knife is a large all-round kitchen knife with a 240 mm blade. Its length gives you plenty of edge for bigger prep jobs: slicing and portioning boneless meat, cutting fish, chopping vegetables and cutting bread. The hand-sharpened AUS-8 stainless steel blade is paired with a curved black TPE handle with a textured grip.
Blade and steel
The blade is made from a single layer of AUS-8 stainless steel, hardened to 58–59 HRC. Steel at this hardness keeps its edge well through everyday cutting, and you can restore it on a whetstone when it starts to dull. AUS-8 is a corrosion-resistant stainless steel, but the knife still needs washing and drying soon after use.
Every Butcher knife is sharpened by hand with a convex edge: the sides of the blade curve gently into the edge instead of meeting in a flat V. SAMURA uses this technique for a durable, even edge that slices through fibres cleanly, without leaving rough cuts. The blade is 240 mm long and 50 mm high.
Handle and balance
The handle is made of black TPE, with a curved shape and a textured, non-slip grip surface. The texture helps you keep a secure hold, even with wet hands, so you can make confident, quick cuts. The knife weighs 192 g and measures 368 mm overall.
Best uses
- Slicing and portioning boneless meat
- Cutting and portioning fish
- Chopping and slicing vegetables
- Dicing onions
- Cutting fruit
- Cutting bread
Care and sharpening
Rinse the knife with hot water and wipe it dry before first use. After that, wash it by hand with non-abrasive materials and wipe it dry; a dishwasher is not recommended, and the knife should not be left 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°.

Care & sharpening
Keep it sharp
- Before first use, rinse with hot water and wipe dry.
- Use only on wooden or plastic cutting boards, never on glass.
- Take care with food that contains bones: use a SAMURA cleaver for meat and bones and a double-sided saw knife with a serrated blade for frozen food.
- Clean by hand with non-abrasive materials and wipe dry. A dishwasher is not recommended.
- Do not leave knives in the sink for a long time.
- Store in a brush block or knife holder so that the blade does not touch metal items.
- Sharpen on a whetstone and keep the original factory bevel angle of 15–17°. Use a honing rod between sharpenings, moving the edge along the rod from the handle to the point.
- Never test sharpness with bare hands; use a piece of paper.
