The Shun Kai Pro Yanagiba Knife with a 9.5" blade is a must-have for every kitchen. This knife is long, and wicked sharp, with a thick, single bevel blade that is sharpened to a 16° edge for precise cuts without tearing or sawing. The name of this knife means "willow blade leaf" and the narrow profile makes it perfect for creating thin slices of raw fish for sashimi, the weight of the blade doing the work. When it comes to slicing and preparing, the right knife makes all the difference. The smooth slices that you can achieve with this blade keep more of the juices, and therefore more of the flavors, inside the meat. This knife doesn't just cut, it glides. It may seem unbelievable that a certain knife can make your food taste better, but the Shun Kai Pro Yanagiba Knife sure can. Get yours today!
