Specifications

The Masahiro Funayuki is a versatile 180mm Japanese knife forged in Seki from Shirogami #2 carbon steel (~62 HRC). Its stainless-clad sanmai construction combines the sharpness of a carbon steel core with easier maintenance. The blade’s flat profile and agile tip make it suitable for both fish preparation and general kitchen tasks.

About the Funayuki Knife

The Funayuki is a traditional Japanese knife originally designed for fishermen, featuring a flat blade profile with minimal curvature and a pointed tip. Developed for multipurpose use in confined spaces, its 150-180mm blade combines the precision of a Gyuto’s tip with the push-cutting efficiency of a Santoku. The design excels at fish preparation while remaining capable for vegetables and meats, making it particularly suited for small kitchens or as a compact secondary knife. Modern interpretations maintain these functional characteristics while adapting to contemporary kitchen needs.
