Description
Description
A traditional slicing knife
This yanagiba knife, with its 27cm single-edged blade, is perfect for precise, clean cuts, especially for preparing sashimi. It excels at finely slicing fish and other delicate foods. It delivers top-tier performance, ideal for chefs and Japanese cooking enthusiasts.
A high-quality steel
The blade is made of 7Cr17MoV stainless steel, containing around 17% chromium and 0.7% carbon. The chromium gives it exceptional corrosion resistance, while the carbon increases the steel's hardness. This combination lets the blade reach a hardness of 58/59 HRC, meaning a long-lasting, effective edge. The addition of vanadium and molybdenum further strengthens its hardness and wear resistance. To protect the blade, a wooden saya is supplied. It measures 30.3cm long and 4.8cm high.
Olive wood for a stylish handle
The olive wood handle is known for its long-lasting durability and pleasant feel. The unique grain of each piece of olive wood adds a distinctive touch to every knife. Thanks to its high density, it resists impact remarkably well, while also proving highly watertight. Moisture and bacteria are therefore unable to work their way inside. Made in a D shape, it's specifically suited to right-handed cooks, giving them a comfortable grip even during long cutting sessions.
A remarkably well-finished knife
A stainless steel bolster acts as a harmonious link between the handle and the blade. It's adorned with three black edgings for an elegant contrast. A stainless steel butt completes the design while ensuring perfect balance for the knife. Presented in a storage box, this Wusaki knife is also an excellent gift idea for cooking enthusiasts.

Care & sharpening
Care & sharpening
Use
- Cut with a straight, linear motion. Twisting motions damage the cutting edge and can break the blade.
- Use a wooden cutting board. Glass or marble dull the cutting edge over time.
Cleaning
- Wash by hand with a soft sponge and mild soap, then rinse with lukewarm water. Abrasive surfaces are not suitable for the steel.
- Oil the blade from time to time with a neutral mineral oil to protect it.
Sharpening
- Don't wait until the blade is completely dull: regular maintenance on a 1000-grit whetstone keeps an excellent cutting edge without removing too much material.
- Match the whetstone's grit to the condition of the blade — coarse grit to restore a very dull edge, fine grit to polish.
