The FKH line from Fujiwara Kanefuse is a High Carbon series. These knives are more reactive so they require extra care to keep from oxidizing, but will form a great patina. These knives also take a steep edge and will hold it for an extended period. This series is equipped with black Pakka wood handles and the steel has a HRC rating of 60. They are an extraordinary value at this price point. The 270mm Sujihiki is a great slicer. It can handle roasted birds or meats of almost any size and makes slicing a breeze.
It’s really easy to sharpen,gets really sharp,and stays sharp. It’s not so hard that it’s prone to chipping. Pretty much perfect for what it needs to do. The fit and finish isn’t impressive but the price is. Tip bends really easily so don’t bump it into anything and you should be fine. Bent tips are easier to fix than broken ones.

Great knife for the price. Heavier than I expected,but also came sharper out of the box than expected. Already developing a nice patina after two days. Am recommending Fujiwara to those on a budget as a solid choice.

Knife just arrived,much earlier than I expected might I add. Literally 3 days from sale to my door.
The fit and finish on this knife are outstanding as far as I’m concerned. You can still see some of the wood grain in the handle,and there are no sharp edges on the spine or anywhere else.
Someone else said it was heavier than expected; I still say this knife is very light when compared to any western style knife.
This was my first purchase from Chefknivestogo,and has been a dream. I can’t recommend these guys enough!

excellent knife at a very reasonable price. So far it has been wonderful to work with. I purchase this knife to use for carving roasts as I do that a lot through the winter in the restaurant I work in. So far it has seen action skining salmon,which is a joy with this knife. Just wish it had the Japanese octagonal handle instead.

I Bought this knife to give Carbon Steel a shot. I’m very happy. holds it’s edge well,glides through tenderloin. I actually use this as a multi purpose everyday knife. It’s forming a a very nice patina. Bang for the buck,I’ll take if over most of my wusthofs.
