Premium Takeshi Saji Ginsan #3 240mm Yanagiba Japanese Sushi Knife with Authentic Deer Horn Handle - Perfect for Sushi Chefs & Professional Japanese Cuisine Preparation

The Yanagiba is primarily used to slice boneless fish fillets for Sashimi and Sushi dishes, but it can also be used to fillet small to medium-sized fish, and is often used for skinning fish. The narrow blade and relatively acute edge angle of the Yanagiba are features which greatly reduce the effort required to cut through ingredients. As with the Sujihiki, the long blade allows the fish to be cut in one single drawing motion, from heel to tip. Total Length: 385mm
