Collection: Yanagiba & Sashimi Japanese Knives

The yanagiba is the traditional Japanese sashimi knife - a long, single-bevel blade designed to slice raw fish in one clean, pulling stroke, preserving the cell structure and presenting pristine cuts. Essential for sushi and sashimi preparation, and a mark of serious Japanese knife craft.

At Chef & a Knife, we stock yanagiba from Japan's specialist makers - from accessible entry points to hand-forged blades from Sakai's master smiths, where the yanagiba tradition runs deepest.
