Suncraft Japanese Fruit and Camping Knife – Shirasaya Style
Sharpness and Precision from the Land of the Rising Sun
The blade is made of 420 stainless steel, which is ideal for food contact. Thanks to the precise Japanese grind, the knife is very sharp and excellent for peeling and slicing fruit, vegetables, or preparing snacks on the go. On the blade, you will find the stamp "SUNCRAFT STAINLESS MADE IN JAPAN", guaranteeing the origin and quality of manufacture. The connection between the blade and the handle is reinforced with a black collar, adding an elegant contrast to the knife.
The knife includes a wooden sheath (scabbard) that fits the handle perfectly, protecting the edge from damage and you from cuts.

The Culture of Fruit Slicing
In Japan, serving fruit is a ritual. Fruit is not peeled carelessly but with maximum precision to delight the eye. This type of knife is designed to allow you to make long and clean cuts. Thanks to the lightweight wooden construction, you have great feel in your hand, and the knife is very easy to control.
Care and Maintenance
Since both the handle and sheath are made of natural wood, the knife requires gentle handling. Never wash it in a dishwasher! The wood would absorb water, swell, and could crack. After use, wash the blade with lukewarm water, dry immediately, and store in the dry sheath. If the wood dries out over time, you can treat it with a drop of vegetable oil.
Safety Warning
Although it is a fruit knife, the edge is very sharp. When sheathing the knife, ensure you do so smoothly and do not use excessive force.
