Description
Description
The ideal knife for sashimi
This yanagiba knife has a 30cm single-edged blade. It's ideal for precise, careful cuts, especially for preparing sashimi. It excels at finely slicing fish and other delicate foods. It delivers optimal performance that meets the demands of professional chefs and Japanese cooking enthusiasts.
A premium-grade alloy
The blade is forged from 7Cr17MoV stainless steel, an alloy made up of roughly 17% chromium and 0.7% carbon. The chromium provides exceptional corrosion resistance, while the carbon increases the steel's rigidity. This composition lets the blade reach a hardness of 58/59 HRC, which guarantees a precise, long-lasting edge. The addition of vanadium and molybdenum further strengthens hardness and wear resistance for even greater longevity. The blade comes with an elegant wooden saya to protect it. It measures 33.3 x 5.3 cm.
A handle with a one-of-a-kind grain
The handle is made of olive wood, a species known for its strength and pleasant feel. Every handle has a unique grain that adds a touch of authenticity to each knife. The high density of olive wood means great resistance to impact and excellent water-resistance, standing up to moisture and bacteria. The D-shaped handle is specifically designed for right-handed cooks, who also benefit from an ergonomic, comfortable grip even during long cutting sessions.
A knife with premium finishing
A stainless steel bolster ensures a harmonious join between the handle and the blade. It's decorated with three black edgings creating an attractive contrast. A stainless steel butt finishes off the design while perfectly balancing the knife's weight. Supplied in an elegant storage box, this Wusaki knife also makes 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.
