Uses of a Sujihiki Knife
Meat Slicing (Carving)
- 
Perfect for slicing roast beef, turkey, pork loin, and similar dishes.
 - 
The Sujihiki’s long, narrow blade reduces friction, allowing for smooth, clean slices in a single motion.
 - 
In the U.S., beautifully sliced meats are often a focal point—think Thanksgiving turkey—and the Sujihiki excels in this role.
 
Trimming and Portioning Meat
- 
Ideal for trimming fat and silver skin, or portioning steaks and chunks from larger cuts of beef or pork.
 - 
Some people in the U.S. find it easier to handle than traditional butchering or boning knives.
 
BBQ and Smoked Meats
- 
Popular for slicing smoked brisket, pulled pork, and other barbecue dishes.
 - 
BBQ enthusiasts often praise the Sujihiki as being “sharper and more agile” than Western-style slicing knives.
