The details
A closer look
The Samura Sultan chef's knife with a black handle is an all-round knife made for daily use. Its 164 mm blade takes care of most everyday prep, from boneless meat and fish to vegetables, fruit and bread. Its 67-layer Damascus steel blade is paired with a black G-10 handle and a stainless steel bolster.
Blade and steel
The blade is forged from 67 layers of Damascus steel and hardened to 59–61 HRC. At this hardness the edge stays keen through regular cooking, and when it does start to dull, a whetstone brings it back. A hard edge also asks for some care: keep it away from bones, frozen food and glass boards.
The knife has a convex edge: the faces of the blade curve gently down to the cutting edge instead of meeting in a flat, V-shaped bevel.
Handle and balance
The handle is made of black G-10, a strong material normally used for survival knives. A stainless steel bolster sits between the handle and the blade, and the curved butt at the end of the handle gives your hand added support. The knife weighs 172 g and measures 288 mm overall.
Best uses
- Slicing and dicing boneless meat
- Cutting and portioning fish
- Chopping vegetables and dicing onions
- Slicing fruit
- Cutting bread
Care and sharpening
Before first use, rinse the knife with hot water and wipe it dry. Wash it by hand with non-abrasive materials, dry it straight away and do not leave it in the sink for long; a dishwasher is not recommended. Use wooden or plastic boards, never glass, and leave bones to a SAMURA cleaver and frozen food to a double-sided saw knife with a serrated blade. Keep the knife in a brush block or knife holder where the blade does not touch metal items, hone it on a honing rod between sharpenings and sharpen it on a whetstone at the original factory bevel angle of 15–17°.
About the Sultan series
The Sultan collection takes its inspiration from the Ottoman Empire, with blade shapes based on classic Asian pchaks, tugri and kayik, and every Sultan blade is forged from 67-layer Damascus steel. The G-10 handles are made in black, red and white, and like all SAMURA knives, this chef's knife comes with a 2-year warranty.

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.
