Sugimoto Yanagiba 300mm

Sugimoto comes to us from Toyko via Seki city.  We have been huge fans of this small family's work since before the day we opened and continue to amaze at the clean precise work that comes from them.  They remain quiet and humble in the sense that this small family has produced great consistent work without compromise since after World War 2. Located in the famous Tsujiki Fish market in Tokyo, we are proud to be able to represent them in Canada.

The Yanagiba is the king of knives.  The blade that does the final cut before the sashimi is eaten.  Designed for a long fluid slicing motion. 

Made with a Kasumi style White Steel, please remember to keep this blade dry and clean to avoid oxidation / rust.

Although blades are very similar, ferrule colours will vary due to the handmade nature of these knives.  Please note that ferrules range from dark black to light pearl tones.
