Crafted to perfection from premium white steel and with the traditional Kasumi buffalo magnolia handle, this Yanagiba Left Hand knife exudes style, sophistication, and impressive cutting performance. The 210mm blade is versatile and well-balanced, allowing you to achieve a smooth, precise cut. Enjoy a kitchen essential made to last and bring gourmet results to your culinary creations.

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.

Shirogami No.2 has minimal impurities and a very fine grain structure, so it is ideal for fine cutting tools such as Japanese traditional-style knives. Despite being a ‘simple’ carbon steel, Shirogami No.2 has very good edge retention and it is also very easy to re-sharpen. Recommended for first-time users of Japanese traditional-style knives.

Traditional Kasumi polished finish. Kasumi roughly translated to “mist” or “cloud” and refers to the hazy appearance of the soft steel/iron cladding, in contrast to the fine polished cutting edge. This elegant finish is very common on traditional style Japanese blades.

It's beautiful to look at and work with. Delivered With a nice edge and is verry sharp, no need for sharpening out of the box.

I am left handed, and quality left handed knives are hard to find. I am so delighted with the left handed yanagiba and saya I bought, that I will be looking to replace some of my older right hand knives. Also, the Musashi company and staff were extremely helpful and a pleasure the do business with.

Product Features

Handmade Forging

With the traditional forging process, the molecules of the iron material are finely tuned, leading to the completion of a "living kitchen knife" that breathes.

Durability

The process of heating and forging each material for mold making is repeated three or four times to quickly shape the blade and create durability before the carbon is released from the steel causing it to lose its original strength.

Sharpness

The blade is the most important factor in achieving the best possible sharpness. It is polished in our own blade factory to produce uncompromising sharpness.

Handle

The highest priority is placed on sturdiness, a sense of luxury, and a shape that is easy to grip and does not cause fatigue even after long hours of use.
