It is perfect for those professionals who have daily high-volume prep work for extended hours. 


The knife is complimented with a traditional Japanese Ebony handle and comes included with a protective wooden sheath called a Saya. This specific Saya included with the knife is brush coated with non-toxic lacquer coating that provides resistance to unwanted odor, stain, and chips. The Yanagi Kiritsuke is a long slicing knife designed to cut thin slices of fish for sushi and sashimi. The beauty of its elegant thin blade is in its ability to slice through ingredients in long uninterrupted strokes, preserving their integrity and freshness. The Yanagi Kiritsuke is one of the most essential of traditional Japanese knives and is a powerful component in the repertoire of many chefs. Although traditional Japanese powder steel knives are not 100% stain resistance, with proper care they can provide years of enjoyment. Keeping dry before storage. This will keep your knife in tip top shape. Japanese knives should always be sharpened and honed on premium quality Japanese water stones.
