The Yoshihiro SG2 Semi-Stainless Steel Yanagi knife represents the pinnacle of craftsmanship, skillfully forged through traditional methods and enhanced with modern metallurgy at extreme temperatures. This exceptional steel composition, durable enough for use in industrial machinery and power tools, features a hardness rating of 64-65 on the Rockwell scale. This ensures that the knife maintains its superior edge for an impressive duration, making it the perfect choice for professionals who tackle high-volume prep work daily.

Complemented by a traditional Japanese Ebony handle, this knife not only offers an elegant aesthetic but also provides a comfortable grip during prolonged use. It includes a protective wooden sheath known as a Saya, which is brush-coated with a non-toxic lacquer. This coating enhances durability and offers resistance to unwanted odors, stains, and chips, ensuring your knife remains in excellent condition when not in use.

Designed specifically for slicing thin pieces of fish for sushi and sashimi, the Yanagi is a long slicing knife that excels in delivering long, uninterrupted strokes. This preserves the integrity and freshness of the ingredients, making it an essential tool in any chef's kitchen. While traditional Japanese powder steel knives may not be entirely stain-resistant, proper care can extend their lifespan significantly. Always keep the knife dry before storage to maintain its optimal condition, and sharpen and hone it on premium quality Japanese water stones to ensure top performance. With the Yoshihiro SG2 Yanagi, elevate your culinary experience and enjoy the craftsmanship that goes into each blade.
