What makes the Yanagiba knife unique?

Sakai is synonymous with knifemaking excellence in Japan, and Shigekatsu-san is one of the most respected names in that tradition. This Yanagiba has been forged entirely by hand from SK steel, offering a long-lasting edge and a classic sushi knife feel. The single-sided sharpening, typical of professional Japanese knives, requires technique but offers unparalleled control over the cut. The unruled blade allows for smooth, sustained sharpening on water stones. A tool for those seeking perfection without artifice.
