Step 1: Rinse
Warm water and mild soap after each use. Never put your knife in the dishwasher; the harsh detergents and jostling will damage the edge and handle.
Step 2: Dry
Towel dry immediately. Don't leave it wet or in the sink; even stainless steel can develop spots if left damp.
Step 3: Store
Use a knife block, magnetic strip, or blade guard. Never toss it loose in a drawer; it dulls the edge and is a safety hazard.
That's it. No special maintenance, no fussy rituals. Your Shimeru knife is designed for daily use, and with these three steps it'll stay razor-sharp for years.
Every knife comes in its own presentation box, ready to give as a gift.
Suma 須磨 4.5″ Damascus Steel Steak Knife Set (4 Pieces) ステーキナイフ
Introducing the Suma 須磨 by Shimeru, a premium set of four 4.5″ steak knives that bring the artistry of Japanese craftsmanship to your dining table. Named after the tranquil shores of Suma, these knives transform every meal into an occasion—where precision meets elegance and performance becomes ritual.
67-Layer Damascus Steel Precision Each Suma steak knife is individually forged from 67 layers of premium Damascus steel, encasing a VG10 core with a Rockwell hardness of 62 HRC for exceptional edge retention and durability. The distinctive wave pattern across each blade is a testament to traditional forging mastery. Honed to a razor-sharp 15° edge, significantly finer than the 20–25° found on typical Western knives, the Suma cuts through steak with effortless precision, preserving the juices and texture of every cut.
G10 Ergonomic Handle The handle is crafted from military-grade G10 fibre, renowned for its strength, durability, and resistance to moisture, heat, and bacteria. The sleek black finish offers timeless sophistication, while the ergonomic triple-rivet design ensures a secure, comfortable grip. Whether you're hosting an intimate dinner or a grand gathering, the Suma sits confidently in hand, elevating every dining experience.
Elevate Your Table At 4.5″, each Suma steak knife is perfectly proportioned for tableside use—agile enough for precise cuts yet substantial enough for the finest ribeye or fillet. The set of four ensures your guests share in the experience of exceptional craftsmanship.
A Dining Experience Refined The Suma 須磨 4.5″ Damascus Steel Steak Knife Set is more than cutlery, it is a statement of refined taste. For those who believe that how you dine is as important as what you eat, the Suma collection will bring artistry, precision, and elegance to every meal.
Crafted from professional-grade, heat-treated high-carbon steel, Shimeru Knives deliver exceptional sharpness, durability, and edge retention. From the first slice, you’ll experience the precision that sets us apart.
Engineered for unmatched sharpness: razor-sharp blades that elevate your culinary experience.
Shimeru Knives feature uniquely designed handles that not only add a sophisticated touch to your kitchen but also provide a comfortable, secure grip for effortless chopping and slicing.
With a double-bevel edge sharpened to 15° (compared to the standard 20-25° of most Western knives), our blades allow for noticeably smoother, faster cuts.

Sold OutReally like these knives overall. The steel is gorgeous and they came razor sharp out of the box. My only wish is that the blade was a little longer, like 5.5 or 6 inches, for bigger cuts of meat. The handle shape is fine but the resin part is smooth so it took a couple uses to feel confident with my grip. Still, for the price you get a full set of damascus steak knives that look great on the table. Would buy again.
got the 4 piece set for my husbands birthday and hes already showing them off to everyone. the damascus pattern is stunning, looks way more expensive than $115. we do steak night every friday and these slice through ribeyes like warm butter. i've been using one of them for cutting tomatoes and onions too, no squishing. came in a really nice presentation box which was a bonus. only thing is theyre so sharp im a little nervous washing them lol
Had cheap serrated steak knives forever and these are a massive upgrade. Used them on some thick pork chops tonight and they cut clean through without sawing back and forth. The handles feel nice, not too heavy. Set of 4 is perfect for our family dinners.
These knives are no joke. Razor sharp out of the box and the handle feels great in your hand. Used them for steak night and sliced through everything like butter. The set of four is perfect for family dinner.
Bought this set for my dad for Father's Day and he was actually impressed. The damascus pattern on these is really nice in person, pictures dont do it justice. He used one to cut a thick ribeye and it went through like nothing. The box it came in was really sturdy too, no dings. We all used them that night and I ended up ordering another set for myself. Definitely would buy again.
Nice set overall. The blades are sharp and the damascus look is really cool. Only thing is the handles are a little heavier than I expected, took a couple uses to get used to. Still, they cut great and I dont regret buying them.
Got this set for my husband's birthday and we've been using them for every steak night since. The damascus pattern is gorgeous and they are seriously sharp, cut through ribeye like butter. The handle feels nice in your hand, not too heavy. Love that there are 4 so we always have enough when we have guests. Came in a nice box too.
Got this 4 piece set for my husband's birthday and he's been using them every chance he gets. The damascus pattern is really nice looking, way prettier in person. We did a steak night last weekend and these cut through ribeye like nothing, super sharp. The handles feel good in your hand, not too heavy or slippery. Came in a nice box too which was a bonus. For the price this set is a steal honestly.
These are pretty solid steak knives. Sharp out of the box and the damascus steel looks great on the table. The handle is a bit thicker than what I'm used to from my old set, so it took a couple dinners to get comfortable with the grip. But overall I'm happy with the set, no issues with the edge after a few weeks of use. Would've liked maybe a 6 piece option but 4 is fine for us.
Bought these as a gift for my dad's birthday. He's been using the same dull serrated steak knives for like 20 years so this set was a big upgrade. He really likes them, says they glide through steak and even uses one for slicing tomatoes from the garden. The resin and wood handle looks sharp on the table. My only wish is they came with some kind of individual sleeve or guard for the drawer because the blades are so sharp you gotta be careful reaching in. Other than that no complaints.
