Its single-edged design ensures precision slicing, especially for sashimi and sushi. The knife boasts an elegant octagonal ebony handle with a Water Buffalo horn bolster, combining durability with traditional aesthetics. Included lacquered Saya sheath and Tsubaki oil support proper maintenance, making this knife a coveted tool for discerning chefs who value both form and function. ## Description Our handmade Yoshihiro Blue Steel #1 Suminagashi knives are crafted with extraordinary skill by our master artisans. Suminagashi translates as floating ink and refers to the beautiful marbled wave like patterns that extend through the blade from the tip to the heel, unveiling a new mosaic with every sharpening. Only the most skilled of artisans can forge together Blue Steel #1(HRC 64-65) and iron in such complex puzzle piece formations to fashion knives of this caliber with the highest quality, blending aesthetics and performance. Our Yoshihiro Aoko Blue Steel Suminagashi knives are complimented with a traditional Japanese handle made from the wood of the Ebony Tree and affixed with a Water Buffalo horn bolster. A protective lacquered wooden sheath called a Saya encases each knife and adds to its appearance when not in use. The Yanagi is a long slicing knife designed to cut thin slices of fish for sushi and sashimi. The beauty of its elegant thin blade is in its ability to slice through ingredients in long uninterrupted strokes, preserving their integrity and freshness. The Yanagi is one of the most essential of traditional Japanese knives and is a powerful component in the repertoire of many chefs. Although traditional Japanese carbon steel knives are not stainless, with proper care they can provide years of enjoyment. Keeping dry in between usage, and applying Tsubaki Oil(as included) before storage will keep your knife in tip top shape. Japanese knives should always be sharpened and honed on premium quality Japanese water stones. KNIFE CAN BE OXIDIZED WITHOUT PROPER CARE *RECOMMEND FOR PROFESSIONAL ONLY* Review: Art and Beauty, form and function - This knife is a thing of beauty - like metal art. It seems almost criminal to actually use it for, gasp, cutting. That said, it is also a perfect tool for the job it was intended - far sharper than any razor, a blade straight and true; it slices through fish flesh smoother than a hot wire through butter. Yoshihiro did a fantastic job of packaging it safely and securely, and it even reached me a couple days ahead of expected delivery, at the Christmastime rush no less. Review: Great Sushi Knife - Very well made, elegant and razer sharp. Beautiful pattern makes a great presentation piece. The only thing to be desired is the case, which is not of high quality, but hey, you save over $300 for that ebony case. I am pretty happy with the purchase. ## Features - KNIFE CAN BE OXIDIZED WITHOUT PROPER CARE *RECOMMEND FOR PROFESSIONAL ONLY* - Grade: Suminagashi Damascus / Knife Type: Yanagi - Steel Type: Aoko (Blue Steel #1) High Carbon Steel / Edge Angle: Single-Edged - Bolster: Water Buffalo Horn (BOLSTER COLOR -VARIES) / Handle Material: Octagonal Ebony - Hardness Rockwell C scale: 64-65 / Saya Cover : Lacquered Saya Cover ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B004D95P6S | | Blade Edge | Plain | | Blade Length | 11.8 Inches | | Blade Material | Carbon Steel | | Brand | Yoshihiro | | Color | Ebony wood Handle | | Construction Type | Forged | | Customer Reviews | 5.0 5.0 out of 5 stars (5) | | Date First Available | October 20, 2014 | | Handle Material | Wood,Steel,Iron | | Is Discontinued By Manufacturer | No | | Is Dishwasher Safe | Yes | | Item Length | 11.8 Inches | | Item model number | SMYA300EH | | Manufacturer | Yoshihiro | | Size | 11.8" | | UPC | 700736843604 | ## Product Details - **Blade Edge:** Plain - **Blade Material:** Carbon Steel - **Brand:** Yoshihiro - **Color:** Ebony wood Handle - **Handle Material:** Wood,Steel,Iron ## Images ![Yoshihiro High Carbon Blue Steel #1 Suminagashi Yanagi Sashimi Japanese Chef’s Knife with Ebony Handle - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/31aR0Sq20BL.jpg) ![Yoshihiro High Carbon Blue Steel #1 Suminagashi Yanagi Sashimi Japanese Chef’s Knife with Ebony Handle - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/415M0ZPbh4L.jpg) ![Yoshihiro High Carbon Blue Steel #1 Suminagashi Yanagi Sashimi Japanese Chef’s Knife with Ebony Handle - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/41UE8ih5fWL.jpg) ![Yoshihiro High Carbon Blue Steel #1 Suminagashi Yanagi Sashimi Japanese Chef’s Knife with Ebony Handle - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/41UlNpMwmhL.jpg) ![Yoshihiro High Carbon Blue Steel #1 Suminagashi Yanagi Sashimi Japanese Chef’s Knife with Ebony Handle - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/41lr366iIYL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Art and Beauty, form and function *by T***L on January 29, 2015* This knife is a thing of beauty - like metal art.
