What to know before you buy
About this knife
- Yanagiba knives of this 270mm length are long: best on a large board with room to work.
- It has a Japanese-style (wa) handle: a handle without a metal bolster, set into the blade with a hidden tang.
- Ginsan (Silver #3) is a stainless steel, which resists rust better than carbon steel.
Limits to know
- It is single-bevel: sharpened on one side only, made for one hand, and harder to sharpen well than a double-bevel knife.
Written from this knife's catalog record (steel, handle, length, grind). Knife Fit has not tested it; see how we work.
Good to know for beginners
A yanagiba is the long, single-bevel sashimi knife, sharpened on one side for clean slices of raw fish. Ginsan (Silver #3) is stainless: it resists rust better than carbon steel, which makes it an easy choice for everyday cooking. The Japanese wa handle is light and puts the balance toward the blade.
