Prepare sashimi, nigiri, and delicate seafood with clean, controlled pull cuts using the Yakushi Yanagiba Sashimi Knife. Its long 11-inch blade gives you the reach to draw through boneless fish in one smooth stroke, helping reduce tearing and preserve texture and presentation. The blade is constructed from 67-layer Japanese Damascus steel and features a traditional single-beveled edge optimized for right-handed use. At approximately 245g, it offers steady control without requiring heavy downward pressure. Its solidified wood and blue resin handle provides a secure, comfortable grip for precise slicing. The knife is best suited to sashimi, nigiri, sushi fish slices, crudo, delicate seafood, and carefully prepared boneless proteins. This is a precision slicing knife, not a chopping or fish-butchering knife. Avoid bones, fish heads, frozen food, hard ingredients, rocking cuts, twisting, and prying. Hand-wash with mild dish soap and dry immediately after use. Show more
