The details
A closer look
The Samura Mo-V tomato knife has a narrow 120 mm blade with a serrated edge, made for tomatoes and other produce with a firm skin and a soft, juicy inside. Its serrations catch on the skin, so you can cut with a light sawing motion instead of pressing down on the soft flesh. 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. This hardness gives the edge good staying power in everyday use. AUS-8 is a corrosion-resistant stainless steel; still, wash and dry the knife soon after cutting juicy produce to keep it in good condition.
The serrated edge grips a firm or slippery skin instead of sliding over it, which helps tomatoes keep their shape as you slice them. The blade is 120 mm long and 22 mm high.
Handle and balance
The black G-10 handle is ergonomic and moisture-resistant, and G-10 is a heat- and wear-resistant material. It is paired with a stainless steel bolster. The one-piece blade, fused with the bolster, runs through the full length of the handle, which makes the knife reliable and durable. The knife measures 238 mm overall.
Best uses
- Slicing tomatoes into rounds and wedges
- Cutting oranges and lemons
- Cutting other fruit and vegetables with a firm skin and a soft, juicy core
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; when the edge needs attention, 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.
