Yasuo Black 210mm Yanagiba Knife

Precision and Elegance for Perfect Slices

Designed in collaboration with Japanese Knife Company (JKC), the Yasuo Black 210mm Yanagiba is handcrafted in Seki, Japan—renowned for its centuries-old knife-making tradition. This refined slicing knife is ideal for preparing sashimi, sushi, and other delicate proteins with precision and grace.

The 69-layer Damascus blade features a VG10 stainless steel core, offering exceptional hardness, edge retention, and corrosion resistance. The cold-forged construction ensures lasting durability, while the matte Damascus finish and dark grey edge create a striking, modern appearance.

Unlike traditional single-bevel Yanagiba, this model is double-bevelled, making it more versatile and easier to use for right- and left-handed chefs. The black Pakkawood handle is beautifully shaped, moisture-resistant, and provides a balanced, comfortable grip.
