The Yanagiba, meaning \"willow leaf blade\", is the quintessential Japanese sashimi knife, designed for the long, single-stroke pulling cut that produces clean, glistening slices of fish without tearing the delicate flesh. This vintage 210mm example in carbon steel is a genuine working knife from an era when these blades were made to last a lifetime.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eThe Specs\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e Tadamune\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSteel:\u003c\/strong\u003e Carbon Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBlade Length:\u003c\/strong\u003e 210mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBevel:\u003c\/strong\u003e Single bevel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHandle:\u003c\/strong\u003e Timber\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConstruction:\u003c\/strong\u003e Fully forged\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOrigin:\u003c\/strong\u003e Made in Japan\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCondition:\u003c\/strong\u003e Second hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOriginal box:\u003c\/strong\u003e Included\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhy This Knife Works\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe single-bevel geometry of a Yanagiba is what sets it apart from any Western slicer. The flat back glides cleanly through fish, while the hollow or flat bevel on the front allows the blade to release each slice effortlessly. Carbon steel takes a finer edge than stainless and responds beautifully to whetstone sharpening - essential for the razor-thin cuts a Yanagiba demands. At 210mm, this is a compact and nimble Yanagiba, well suited to smaller fish preparations and tighter workspaces. A rare find complete with its original box.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCare and Maintenance\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHand wash only - never dishwasher\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDry immediately after washing to prevent rust on the carbon steel blade\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eApply a light coat of food-safe oil to the blade if storing long-term\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSharpen on a whetstone - single-bevel geometry requires sharpening on the bevel side only; keep the back flat\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNo honing rod - professional sharpening recommended if unsure\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStore in a knife roll or protective sleeve - never loose in a drawer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Chef \u0026 a knife","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55430578995491,"sku":"tadamuniyanagiba210","price":100.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0261\/1819\/3230\/files\/6608BB1C-7378-475A-8392-BCE413297D60.jpg?v=1787468673","url":"https:\/\/chefandaknife.com.au\/products\/tadamune-yanagiba-210mm-carbon-steel-2159","provider":"Chef \u0026 a knife","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
