Experience the artistry of the Hongasumi Yanagi Kiritsuke knife, forged from Shiroko High Carbon White Steel #2 with a remarkable hardness of HRC 62-63. This exquisite knife excels in edge retention and can achieve a finer edge compared to traditional Kasumi knives, making it ideal for intermediate chefs. Each knife is 100% handcrafted in Japan, ensuring a unique creation that comes ready to use, complete with a magnolia lacquered wood sheath, knife oil, and rust eraser.

Crafted by our master artisans, the Yoshihiro Hongasumi knives showcase extraordinary skill, blending craftsmanship and performance. The White Steel #2 is expertly forged with iron to create stunning mist patterns, emphasizing refined forging and polishing for exceptional quality.

Featuring a traditional Japanese-style handcrafted ebony handle with a shitan rosewood bolster, this Yanagi knife is both functional and a work of art. The included Saya, a protective wooden sheath, is brush-coated with non-toxic lacquer for resistance to odors, stains, and chips.

Specifically designed for slicing thin pieces of fish for sushi and sashimi, the Yanagi's elegant thin blade allows for long, uninterrupted strokes, preserving the integrity and freshness of ingredients. With a slightly heavier build, a wider blade, and a thicker spine, this knife offers excellent balance, making it perfect for chefs in smaller working spaces. Elevate your culinary experience with this handcrafted knife that embodies both beauty and functionality.
