This set pairs a Yanagiba, the long single-bevel blade favoured by sushi and sashimi chefs for its ability to slice fish in a single, clean draw, with a Nakiri, the flat-edged vegetable knife designed for precise, push-cut chopping. Both blades are fully forged from carbon steel, a material prized for its ability to take an exceptionally keen edge and develop a natural patina over time that reflects years of use. Finding a matched Yoshitoyo set in its original box is genuinely rare - a piece of Japanese kitchen history ready to be put back to work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCare \u0026amp; Maintenance\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHand wash only - never dishwasher\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDry immediately after washing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHone regularly with a honing rod to maintain edge alignment\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSharpen with a whetstone or send to a professional sharpener\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStore in a knife block or on a magnetic strip\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Chef \u0026 a knife","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55353638748451,"sku":"yoshitoyo","price":210.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0261\/1819\/3230\/files\/93355B6F-8AF8-4A50-BBBD-CE9C74837C3A.jpg?v=1784721329","url":"https:\/\/chefandaknife.com.au\/products\/vintage-yoshitoyo-knife-set-original-box-2130","provider":"Chef \u0026 a knife","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
