Stacked Product Description and Specs

Yoshihiro Aonamiuchi Blue Steel knives represent the pinnacle of craftsmanship, expertly forged from Aoko Blue Steel #1 with a remarkable Rockwell hardness of 64. The intricate forging process combines high-quality steel and iron, creating stunning wave-like patterns, a hallmark of the Namiuchi technique, meaning "wave forged." This artistry reflects the dedication and skill involved in each blade's creation.

Each knife features a traditional handcrafted Ebony handle and a protective magnolia wood Saya cover, ensuring your knife stays pristine when not in use. This combination provides a comfortable grip while adding elegance to your kitchen.

The Yanagi Kiritsuke is a versatile, long slicing knife designed for ultra-thin fish slices, making it essential for sushi and sashimi preparation. Its elegant, thin blade glides effortlessly through food, preserving the integrity and freshness of your ingredients. The slightly heavier design, wider blade, and thicker spine enhance stability and control, making it ideal for precision tasks.
