Samura Pro-S Slicing Knife 200 mm

The Samura Pro-S slicing knife has a 200 mm blade for slicing and portioning. Use it on boneless meat and fish, and to cut sausage, vegetables, fruit and bread. Like the whole Pro-S series, it is made for old-school and modern cooks who put performance and comfort first.

Blade and steel

The blade is made from a single layer of AUS-8 stainless steel, hardened to 58–59 HRC. AUS-8 is known for its durability and for keeping its sharpness through regular use. At this hardness the edge holds up well to daily cooking and can be restored on a whetstone when it dulls.

The double-bevel edge is ground on both sides, which keeps resharpening straightforward. The knife follows a classic European design with a full-tang blade, 200 mm long and 34 mm high. This length lets you slice boneless meat or fish in long strokes rather than sawing back and forth.

Handle and balance

The black G-10 handle has the European style of the Pro-S series and is fitted with rivets. G-10 is a durable handle material, and the ergonomic shape gives you a firm, comfortable grip. A stainless steel bolster sits between the blade and the handle. SAMURA designs every Pro-S knife for a good weight balance, so the slicing knife stays easy to guide. The knife weighs 194 g and measures 347 mm overall.

Best uses

• Slicing and portioning boneless meat
• Slicing and portioning fish
• Slicing sausage
• Slicing vegetables and fruit
• Slicing 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°.
