is this knife for sushi?

These knives are sharp and I've been using them on everything pretty much: meat, veggies, fruits, fish... I do not know if they are specific sushi-knives, but I am sure you can use them for sushi.

This is not a specific knife for sushi. It's a great knife and a good starter set for everyday use.

That is not what I bought it for, I had a sushi chef tell me it was a good knife, but he didn't state whether it was something he would've used or not. I think sushi knives have sharper tips, but don't quote me I know nothing about the art of Sushi.

I am sorry but I do not know which knife you are referring to, but they are excellent knives and would recommend them.

I believe so, the blade isnt thin like fillet knife ( though it is as sharp). I bet you could find youtube videos of the knife in action. After all it is an " as seen on TV" product.

Ive been cutting sushi on this board with a japanese yanagi for over a year now, the knife is stupid sharp( i have a local asian resturant sharpen it for me every other time i use it) its never splintered or gotten pieces in anything ive cut on it.

Yes, and is an excellent knife. Has a very hard VG 10 core with softer stainless cladding, hold an edge well and not hard to sharpen . I have several Japanese Chefs knives (Gyutou) and this is one of my favorites. As good or better than many costing much more (I know since most I own do) . A bargain knife .

I would say yes but not without seriously dulling the blade. I'd suggest a different knife for that. Still a good knife though.

The knife fits your hand, but that's not why I think it's the best there is. It's a much faster running fillet knife. You will clean fish so much better with it than any other fillet knife. Less meat loss.

Yes. You don't even know that it is there. I dive and spearfish in a lot of current and I need a knife that is not bulky. This is a great knife for the price.

No knife, but did come with instructions. If you want my opinion don't waste your money buy a bamboo mat for 4 bucks, that's all you need to make sushi,

ABSOLUTELY NOT!!!! This is sharp and heavy. Sharper than any of your dinner knives! Not a TOY

I would not recommend it for that. I'm a sushi chef and I sharpen 8 to 12 inch knives on it. That is about the maximum size knife that you can comfortably sharpen on this stone.

No the angle is wrong for Japanese knives. He should look for sharpeners that specify for Japanese knives.Good Luck!

You can't use this for Santoku knives. They have different blade angles. You must get a model designed for Asian knives.

Yes! I have 2 santoku knives, one small and one large, plus a 10" break knife and could easily add 2 more knives.

Yes, it is. It's a very nice knife, especially for the price. I went ahead and bought a second one.

yes, but it has size limitations. I would not use it like a chef knife, but I tend to pick it up for specialized jobs.

Yes, but the knife is dull and Ka-Bar has terrible customer service. I'd go with a Case brand knife

I would say so as long as you sharpen it when you get it, it's not the sharpest blade when you get it, but otherwise it's be a great knife for such.
