The Left-Handed Hongasumi White Steel Japanese Sakimaru Takobiki Knife is meticulously designed for left-handed sushi chefs, enabling effortless slicing through the skin and flesh of fish. This exceptional knife ensures precision and ease, elevating the art of sushi making.

Each handmade Yoshihiro Hongasumi knife is a testament to the extraordinary skill of our master artisans. Crafted with the utmost care, these high-quality knives showcase exceptional craftsmanship and performance. The White Steel #2, with a Rockwell hardness rating of 62-63, is skillfully forged with iron to create stunning mist patterns, highlighting refined forging and polishing techniques that demonstrate our commitment to detail.

Complemented by a traditional Japanese-style handcrafted rosewood handle, elegantly affixed with an ebony bolster for a secure and comfortable grip, this knife also includes a protective wooden sheath, known as a Saya, to ensure safe storage and longevity.

The Takobiki features a long, slender blade specifically designed for slicing paper-thin pieces of fish for sashimi. Its blunt tip is ideal for effortlessly cutting through the long tentacles of octopus. Longer and thinner than a Yanagi knife, the Takobiki allows for long, uninterrupted strokes, preserving the integrity and freshness of each ingredient while enhancing your culinary creations.
