Core Benefits:
- True Single-Bevel Blade: Sharpened on only one side, this blade creates a chisel-like edge of unparalleled sharpness. This geometry minimizes cell damage to ingredients, resulting in fresher-tasting, beautifully presented sashimi. (Note: This is a right-handed knife).
- Tough SK-4 Carbon Steel: Experience the performance of a true workhorse steel. SK-4 is known for its excellent toughness and ability to be sharpened to a razor-like, long-lasting edge.
- Nimble & Precise 210mm Blade: While traditional Yanagibas can be very long, the 210mm length offers exceptional agility and control, making it perfect for home kitchens, smaller fish, and those new to single-bevel knives.
- Traditional Wa-Handle: The octagonal handle is crafted from beautiful walnut wood, providing a comfortable, secure, and precise grip for the delicate control needed for slicing.
- Hand-Forged Artistry: Each knife is a unique piece of functional art, handcrafted by skilled blacksmiths in Sakai, Japan, a city with centuries of blade-making history.
