About Yanagi (Sashimi) Knife

The Yanagi (Sashimi) knife is one of the three traditional Japanese knives, along with Deba and Usuba, that were historically requisite for the creation of Japanese cuisine. The Yanagi is specifically designed for slicing raw fish for sushi and sashimi, or delicate cuts of other soft proteins.
The long, thin blade allows for clean, precise cuts, ensuring the delicate texture and presentation of the fish are maintained. Its single-bevel edge facilitates effortless slicing in one smooth motion, minimizing damage to the fish and preserving its natural flavor and appearance. Its hollow-ground backside, known as the Ura, helps facilitate the release of fish as it is sliced.
The Yanagi knife is an essential tool for professional chefs and sushi enthusiasts aiming for perfection in their culinary creations.
