Sujihiki (Flesh Slicer): Designed to make slicing meat as effortless as possible. The short height and generally thin blade on the Sujihiki are intended for the user to make a slice with one clean motion. This action ensures you retain flavourful juice and also cuts down on the sawing motion that creates uneven slices.
