Yanagiba are long slicing knives primarily used for fish - you'll see your sushi chef using a knife very similar to this. Bevelled on only one side, with a curved backface, the edge of this knife is extremely sharp, for precise cuts. The exceptional VG-10 steel used in ths Shun knives is hardened to a Rockwell 61 - extremely hard for an exceptional edge. The Pakkawood handle sets off beautifully against the bright silvery steel for an aesthetic statement in any kitchen.
