is this knife suitable for sushi, sashimi?

Yeah but not the best knife for it look for a yanagi from yoshihiro make sure you get an 11 inch knife

It is much more of an all purpose knife. It will work for sushi but you really need a longer blade for proper sushi or shashimi

It's pretty sturdy and would cut through veggies. I save mine for sushi to keep the blade nice and sharp. The price is good enough to buy several and use them at will.

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.

The knife seems to be high quality, and is stainless steel. I haven't tried to sharpen it yet, but it should be as easy as any knife. A honing steel can also be used if you take care to follow the curved edge.

I believe so. The handle seems symmetrical and western knives are sharpened on both edges. Sushi knives are ground flat on one side and angled on the other.

It work as well as any knife for those tasks. It's design however, makes it super for slicing foods like cheese which tend to stick to the blade while cutting. So for me, that is what I use mine for. Great on fresh mozzarella.

Yes! This knife is excellent. I use it all of the time and it works with every type of bread I've come across so far.

Personally i don't think this knife is meant to be taken into salt water. You probably could, but i think there are better options out there.

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.

Chinese style knives (cleavers) come in two blade profiles. This one is meant to be used as a slicing/paring knife. The steel is good and you probably wouldn't have a problem. But you would be better off with a western style carbon steel cleaver that had a thicker blade (for momentum and shock resistance) and easier sharpening. The shun blades wear really well but they take a while to hone/sharpen, and you don't want to nick one.

If used for another purpose than a knife, probably. This blade is quite robust, but like most knives, it can be damaged.

No it's isn't. I actually don't even recommend it. It's nice but I prefer a chef's knife with more versatility. It's nice from an aesthetic perspective and cutting tomatoes. I hope this helps.

I would not recommend it. I'm not sure if it would do good or harm to the knife. They recommend these sharpeners for knives made in Japan, with a certain blade angle. I think you would be safe just going with a normal knive sharpener for this.

Yes. too cheap to be otherwise. The real question is what kind steel is used for the blade. A couple of the Chinese knife steels aren't bad, the res rest you are better off w/ a stick.

I would imagine...it's pretty sharp. I only use it for my sushi but I'm sure you can use it for other things.
