The details
A closer look
The Samura Sultan pchak brings the shape of the classic Asian pchak to a 159 mm blade. It is a knife for daily use, made for boneless meat, fish, vegetables and fruit. The blade is forged from 67-layer Damascus steel, and the red G-10 handle is fitted with a stainless steel bolster.
Blade and steel
The blade is forged from 67 layers of Damascus steel and hardened to 59–61 HRC. A blade this hard holds its edge well through regular cooking, and you can restore it on a whetstone when it needs sharpening. In return, keep the hard edge away from bones, frozen food and glass boards.
The blade has a convex edge: its sides curve gently into the cutting edge rather than meeting in a flat, V-shaped bevel. Its outline follows the traditional pchak, the shape that gives this knife its name.
Handle and balance
The handle is made of red G-10, and a stainless steel bolster joins it to the blade. The knife weighs 185 g net and measures 283 mm overall.
Best uses

- Cutting and portioning fish
- Chopping and slicing vegetables
- Slicing and cutting fruit
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, 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.
