Yanagiba (柳刃) – The Traditional Japanese Sashimi Knife
Yanagiba is a traditional Japanese single-bevel knife specifically designed for slicing raw fish and preparing sashimi and sushi. The name “Yanagiba” means “willow blade,” referring to its long, slender shape.
Typically ranging from 240mm to 300mm in length, Yanagiba knives are engineered to make clean, single-pull cuts. This slicing technique minimizes cell damage, preserving the texture, flavor, and visual presentation of delicate fish.
Unlike Western-style knives, Yanagiba features a single-bevel edge, allowing for exceptional sharpness and precise control. It is primarily used by professional sushi chefs and requires proper technique to master.
For those dedicated to authentic Japanese cuisine and precision slicing, Yanagiba represents the pinnacle of traditional knife craftsmanship.
White Steel (Shirogami) is a traditional Japanese high-carbon steel produced by Hitachi Metals. Known for its extremely pure composition, it allows knife makers to create blades with very fine grain structures and exceptional sharpness.
Because White Steel contains minimal alloying elements, it responds quickly to sharpening stones and can achieve extremely refined edges. This makes it highly valued by professional chefs and traditional Japanese knife makers.
White Steel is commonly used for traditional Japanese knives such as yanagiba, deba, and usuba, where precise and clean cuts are essential. However, like most carbon steels, it requires proper care to prevent rust.
