Knife Overview
The Toushu Yanagiba is a traditional Japanese sashimi knife, specifically designed for slicing raw fish and preparing sushi or sashimi with clean, precise cuts. Forged from Molybdenum Vanadium Steel, the blade offers excellent corrosion resistance, toughness, and ease of sharpening while maintaining a razor-sharp edge.

This Yanagiba is constructed from monosteel with a single-bevel grind, giving chefs the precision required to slice fish in a single, smooth motion without tearing the delicate flesh. The slender blade profile (210mm or 240mm length) allows for graceful, long slicing strokes, ensuring that presentation is as perfect as flavor.

The handle is crafted from magnolia wood with a plastic ferrule, shaped in a traditional Wa-style (Japanese octagonal design) for comfort and grip. Weighing only 160 grams, it offers excellent balance and control, making it suitable for extended use in professional kitchens.
