The Tojiro Shirogami traditional series of knives is tailor-made for every true sushi master. Knives are forged and sharpened by hand using the same methods that have shaped Japanese blade-making culture for centuries.

The Yanagiba knife is a traditional Japanese shape used to precisely cut fine pieces of boneless fish. This is the main tool that every sushi master keeps close to him, and it helps him to cut not only perfectly pieces of fish with the use of exceptional blades, but also to directly affect the better and fuller taste. Yanagiba knives are considered the sharpest kitchen knives. The length of the blade of 270 mm with an extremely pronounced and sharp tip is ideal for all Sushi masters who have experience in preparing Sushi and Sashimi. This length allows you to perfectly cut even the largest piece of meat in one cut without difficulty. Considered the perfect length for a Yanagiba knife.

The steel used to make this potty is Shirogami 1, i.e. white steel. This is by far the most popular choice for traditional knives as it is this steel that can achieve the perfect level of sharpness due to its similarity to the famous Tamahagane steel. It is made using the lamination technique of harder and softer parts, and it is ground on one side, which is unique for traditional Japanese knives. This is precisely why it is suitable exclusively for right-handed users.

The handle has a traditional shape made of magnolia wood with a black part made of modeled resin. They are designed to provide a pleasant feeling in the hand of right-handed users, while the natural texture of the wood prevents slipping due to the dirty hands of the Sushi master.

How to choose the first Japanese knife?

If you are buying your first Japanese knife, the advice is to choose a multifunctional blade shape that will cover the widest range of your needs in the kitchen. This includes Gyuto, Santoku and Bunka. The rule is that bigger people need bigger knives and vice versa.

Japanese knife as a perfect gift

Although in the culture of the Far East it is not recommended to give a blade as a gift because of the connection with cutting off good relations, they also could not resist the perfection of such a gift, so they devised a "trick" that allows them to gift knives without problems. Just ask for one coin from the person receiving the gift and in the eyes of strict superstition spirits it will be a fair exchange. Now no joke, a knife is a gift that unlike other transient things will be remembered forever because it will serve forever.
