Product description

This Yanagiba knife is made from Aogami #2 steel with a Rockwell hardness rating of 62-63. Its edge length is 295mm, and it has a height at heel of 35.1mm with a spine thickness above the heel of 3.75mm. The knife has a weight of 254 grams and comes with a Wa-Ebony handle with a White Buffalo Horn Collar. The knife features a Mirror Finish, Soft Iron Cladding, and a Single Bevel Construction. It is part of the Mirror Polish Aogami #2 Knife Line and is crafted by Yu Kurosaki, a talented blacksmith based in Takefu, Echizen, Japan.

Yu Kurosaki started his blacksmithing career in 2002, apprenticing under Hiroshi Kato, the then-owner of Kanehiro. In 2018, he received the Traditional Japanese Craftsman award, which is a significant accomplishment. The handmade nature of the product means that specs may vary slightly from knife to knife.The Yanagiba, also known as the Willow Leaf knife, is a specialized single bevel knife designed for slicing raw fish. Sushi chefs use the pull cutting technique with this knife, taking advantage of its thin edge to create precise cuts that result in shiny, perfect slices of fish.
