The details
A closer look
The Samura Mo-V paring knife is a small knife with a 90 mm blade for fruit and vegetables. It takes care of the close work that a larger knife makes awkward: peeling, trimming, coring and cutting small pieces. The blade is a single layer of AUS-8 stainless steel, and the black G-10 handle meets it at a stainless steel bolster.
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 stands up well to everyday prep, and when it starts to dull, you can bring it back on a whetstone without much effort. AUS-8 is a corrosion-resistant stainless steel, but you should still wash and dry the knife soon after use.
The double-bevel edge is ground on both sides, with an original factory bevel angle of 15–17°. An edge ground on both sides is simple to keep in shape with a honing rod and a whetstone. The blade is 21 mm high, a slim shape for work in your hand as well as on the board.
Handle and balance
The handle is made of black G-10, an ergonomic and moisture-resistant material. A stainless steel bolster joins it to the blade for improved hygiene. The knife weighs 85 g and measures 205 mm overall, so it sits lightly in your hand.
Best uses
- Peeling fruit and vegetables
- Topping, tailing and trimming vegetables
- Coring fruit and removing seeds
- Slicing and dicing small fruit and vegetables
- Cutting out blemishes and potato eyes
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 dry it straight away; 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. Use a honing rod between sharpenings, resharpen on a whetstone at the original factory bevel angle of 15–17°, and store the knife in a brush block or knife holder where the blade does not touch metal items.

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.
