The details

A closer look

The Samura Mo-V slicing knife tanto is a long slicer for meat, fish and sausage. Its shape is borrowed from the Japanese tanto sword, and the curved 230 mm blade is made for long, even cuts in a single motion. The single-layer AUS-8 stainless steel blade is paired with a black G-10 handle and 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. For slicing work this is a sensible balance: the edge holds up well to regular use, and it is straightforward to bring back on a whetstone. AUS-8 is a corrosion-resistant stainless steel; washing and drying the knife soon after use keeps it in good condition.

The double-bevel edge is ground on both sides, with an original factory bevel angle of 15–17°. At 37 mm high, the blade has a slim profile made for slicing rather than chopping.

Handle and balance

The handle is made of black G-10, an ergonomic and moisture-resistant material, and a stainless steel bolster sits between handle and blade for improved hygiene. The knife weighs 213 g and measures 367 mm overall.

Best uses

  • Carving boneless roasts and slicing meat
  • Slicing fish fillets
  • Portioning fish
  • Cutting sausage into even slices

Care and sharpening

Before first use, rinse the knife with hot water and wipe it dry. 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. 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.
