Minonokuni Matsu 210mm Blue Steel Yanagiba

The Minonokuni Matsu 210mm Yanagi is a hand-forged traditional Japanese slicer designed for use by professionals and cooks serious about the craft. Made with hon kasumi Aogami Blue 2 Steel (Carbon Steel) this blade will hold an edge very well and can be sharpened to a very fine edge. Like all properly made Yanagis this knife has an Urasuki (chisel) Grind that must be maintained using whetstones. The blade of this knife is seated in an octagonal shaped Magnolia Wood Handle fitted with a Buffalo Horn Ferrule. Precisely shaped and beautifully ground the quality, fit and finish of the Minonokuni Matsu series is guaranteed to surpass that of any similarly priced knife. This knife offers exceptional value given the level of craftsmanship displayed by the master blacksmith who forged this blade.

This knife comes with a traditional Japanese magnolia (ho) wood saya.
