The Yoshihiro shirogami#2 kiritsuke yanagiba 300mm is a handcrafted Japanese sushi knife from Sakai, Japan, sharpened and finished by Masaya Shimizu. This single-bevel knife features a Hitachi Shirogami #2 carbon steel core with iron cladding in nimai construction and a migaki finish.

This kiritsuke yanagiba is designed for slicing fish for sushi and sashimi, with a pointed tip and long straight edge for clean and precise cuts. The iron cladding will develop a natural patina over time with use. Includes a magnolia saya for storage and protection.
