The Sakimaru is a Japanese slicer with a rounded, katana-style tip, and its whole geometry is built around the long draw cut. No sawing. No tearing. One pass and the slice lifts away.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eThe Sakimaru Profile\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA sakimaru has a mostly flat belly and a tip that sweeps gently upward instead of ending in a point. That rounded tip is how the knife gets its name, and it's what lets you start a long slice through soft flesh without the point digging in. HEZHEN sharpens this one as a modern double bevel at 15 degrees per side, which opens it up beyond traditional sashimi work. Use it to fan bluefin tuna across a plate, then turn around and carve a hot ham or a cold roast into wafer-thin slices for sandwiches.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003e67-Layer Damascus Over a Powder Steel Core\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe core is 10Cr15CoMoV, vacuum heat-treated and deep-frozen to 60-62 HRC. That hardness is what you want under a long edge like this one. It takes a very fine finish and \u003cem\u003eholds\u003c\/em\u003e it through a whole session of carving, where a softer slicer would start tearing the flesh by the tenth pass. Wrapped in 67 layers of Damascus cladding for corrosion resistance and a forged pattern that follows the length of the blade.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBlade Steel:\u003c\/strong\u003e 67-layer Damascus with 10Cr15CoMoV core\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHardness:\u003c\/strong\u003e 60-62 HRC (Vacuum Heat Treated)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBlade Profile:\u003c\/strong\u003e 8.5-inch Sakimaru (double bevel, 15 degrees per side)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHandle:\u003c\/strong\u003e Olive Wood \u0026amp; Black Buffalo Horn (Octagonal)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUse:\u003c\/strong\u003e Long pulling slices through sashimi, raw fish, and cooked carving proteins like ham, roast, and brisket.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries:\u003c\/strong\u003e Zhen Series (PM8O)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eModel:\u003c\/strong\u003e PM8O-XWD\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eComplete Your Set\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePair it with the Zhen 7\" Nakiri (PM8O-XC) for the vegetable half of the prep, where the Sakimaru's long slicing profile is the wrong tool entirely, and the Zhen 6\" Honesuki (PM8O-DY) for breaking down poultry before the carving knife takes over at the table.\u003c\/p\u003e\n","brand":"Xinzuo Australia","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53171502317884,"sku":"PM8O-XWD","price":114.95,"currency_code":"PKR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0987\/6717\/5996\/files\/85-sakimaru-knife-zhen-series-pm8o-1933938.jpg?v=1782826532","url":"https:\/\/cosmoglow.shop\/products\/zhen-pm8o-series-8-5-inch-sakimaru-knife","provider":"My Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
