The Yanagi is a long slicing knife that was designed to slice thin slices of fish for sushi and sashimi. The beauty of its elegant thin blade is its ability to slice through an ingredient in long uninterrupted strokes, preserving its integrity and freshness. Even the simplest of tasks are elevated with a handcrafted knife that is as beautiful as it is functional.

DICRIPTION

VG-10 Stainless SteelVG-10 (Takefu Special Steel Co., Ltd.) is one of the most popular and highly regarded Japanese Stainless Steels for making cutlery. It has strong corrosion-resistance and can provide very good edge sharpness and edge retention. VG-10 belongs to a group of steels called "Cobalt Steels”, but it also contains Vanadium, which improves its strength, toughness and edge retention.Damascus is a laminated steel knife made of several layers of different steel materials. The center of the blade is made of hard steel for sharpness, and both sides are covered with multiple soft steel materials. The multiple steels are metallurgically joined, not by plating or glue. The more the blade is forged, the more complex the ripples become, and the more beautiful the unique grain pattern becomes.The handles on these knives are Octagonal Oak wood dye Japanese Lacquer (Urushi) that recalls the images of Japanese tradition.The coating film of Urushi exudes a warm sense of intimacy when in contact with the skin that can almost be likened to the touch of an infant’s skin. With antibacterial and disinfectant properties, it is also provides an exceptional sense of security. urushi is a totally natural lacquer, and with use develops a distinct, deeply refined luster and texture which cannot be reproduced with chemically developed coating materials. This naturally fosters strong feelings of attachment and deference.

  • HANDMADE FORGING

    Through traditional forging methods, the iron molecules are carefully refined, resulting in the creation of a "living kitchen knife" that truly comes to life.

  • DURABILITY

    The process of heating and forging each material for mold creation is repeated three or four times to rapidly form the blade and enhance its durability, preventing the carbon from being released from the steel and maintaining its original strength.

  • SHARPNESS

    The blade plays a crucial role in achieving optimal sharpness. It is meticulously polished in our own blade factory to ensure exceptional sharpness without compromise.

  • HANDLE

    Our top priority is ensuring durability, a luxurious feel, and an ergonomic design that provides a comfortable grip without causing fatigue, even during extended use.
