Why You'll Love It
SG2 (R2) Powder Steel Core
At the heart of the blade is SG2 (R2) powder metallurgy steel, hardened to approximately 62–63 HRC.
Widely regarded as one of Japan's finest stainless knife steels, SG2 offers:
- exceptional edge retention
- incredible sharpness
- excellent wear resistance
- outstanding corrosion resistance
- long-lasting cutting performance
Its extremely fine grain structure allows the blade to take an exceptionally refined edge that stays sharp through extended use.
Mono-Steel Construction
Unlike many laminated Japanese knives, the Burja features a mono-steel SG2 blade.
This construction provides:
- greater flexibility
- outstanding cutting precision
- consistent blade performance
- excellent feedback during slicing
The slight flexibility helps the blade follow the contours of meat and fish while maintaining excellent control.
Optimised Blade Geometry
The long, narrow blade is ground exceptionally thin with a slight curvature that reduces contact with the food.
This allows the knife to:
- glide effortlessly through proteins
- reduce drag
- minimise tearing
- produce clean, professional slices
Combined with the ultra-fine edge, the result is remarkably smooth cutting performance.
Migaki Polished Finish
The blade features a traditional Migaki polished finish, giving it a refined, understated appearance.
Beyond aesthetics, the polished surface helps:
- reduce friction
- improve food release
- simplify cleaning
Elegant, functional, and unmistakably Japanese.
Ebony Octagonal WA Handle
The traditional octagonal ebony handle offers:
- excellent balance
- secure grip
- moisture resistance
- exceptional durability
- comfortable handling during extended use
Its dense ebony construction complements the long blade beautifully, creating a knife that feels stable and precise.
Includes Premium Leather Sheath
Each knife includes a fitted leather sheath, providing safe storage and transport while protecting the edge between uses.
Ideal for chefs working across multiple kitchens or anyone wanting to keep their knife in pristine condition.

The Burja series is crafted in Seki, Japan's legendary knife-making city, where more than 800 years of blade-making tradition continue today.
