Suzuki Forged 65mm Cheese Knife Single Bevel

Suzuki 65mm Cheese Knife

In full disclosure, in Japan this knife is sold as a Kawamuki - which is a peeling knife. Whilst we are never going to stop you from peeling with this knife it has been fully adopted as a cheese knife in our household so it will forever more be known as the Suzuki Cheese knife.

Suzuki Forged Japanese Knives

In a world of cookie cutter copies Suzuki blades are 100% original. Hand forged and built around a super thick spine for rigidity the blade tapers quickly to extreme thinness. These are true single bevelled knives with flat back and and abrupt chisel edge.

It cuts cheese beautifully. And not ridiculously sharp to be dangerous. If you know how to sharpen you can fine tune the bevel to suit whatever sharpness you like.

The blades are fully carbon with a core of WPS2. The blackened part of the blade is covered with lacquer to help protect from rust. Blond spalted maple handles give a refined contrast to the freshly forged appearance of the blades.

Note:

• As the handle is natural wood, colour and grain of wood will vary from the photos.
• Carbon steel blades will change colour and tarnish over time. Carbon steel is prone to rust if you leave it wet, so to maintain it dry and ideally oil the knife before putting it away. The black finish helps protect the blade from rust.
