Our master artisans, some with over 50 years of experience, forge each knife from the highest quality VG-10 steel, achieving a remarkable hardness of 62-63 on the Rockwell scale. The term Honyaki, meaning \"true forged,\" signifies a process that maximizes the hardness of refined steel while ensuring the resiliency needed for consistent performance in the kitchen. Each knife is heated in furnaces reaching thousands of degrees and quenched for extreme hardness, resulting in a stunning fusion of beauty and performance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis Yoshihiro VG10 Honyaki Yanagi-Kiritsuke knife features a traditional Japanese-style Premium Ebony handle, complemented by a luxurious sterling silver ring and a double ironwood bolster. It comes with a protective wooden sheath, known as a \"Saya,\" which safeguards the knife while enhancing its aesthetic appeal when not in use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Yanagi-Kiritsuke is an exceptional long slicing knife designed for achieving paper-thin slices of fish for sashimi. Its elegantly thin blade and round sharp tip allow for long, uninterrupted strokes that preserve the ingredient's integrity and freshness. Compared to a Yanagi, the Takobiki is thinner, making it a unique tool for preparing delicate ingredients. It excels at creating perfect sushi rolls, and its rounded tip can be skillfully angled along the cutting board for clean, precise slices. Elevate your culinary experience with this handcrafted knife that embodies both beauty and functionality, turning even the simplest tasks into moments of artistry.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"tab-content\" id=\"specs\"\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eKnife Specs:\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHRC:\u003c\/strong\u003e 62-63\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGrade:\u003c\/strong\u003e Honyaki\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStain Resistant:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBlade Material:\u003c\/strong\u003e VG-10 Stainless Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEdge Angle:\u003c\/strong\u003e Single Edged\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHandle Material:\u003c\/strong\u003e Ebony\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBolster Material:\u003c\/strong\u003e Double Nickel Silver Ring White Corian (color varies)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHandle Shape:\u003c\/strong\u003e Octagonal\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSaya Cover:\u003c\/strong\u003e Ebony\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Yoshihiro Cutlery","offers":[{"title":"11.8\" (300mm)","offer_id":47901698392294,"sku":"VGHYYK300CHES","price":1099.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0505\/4778\/5915\/files\/VGHYYK300CHES_PT01.jpg?v=1781818392","url":"https:\/\/www.echefknife.com\/products\/yoshihiro-vg-10-honyaki-yanagi-kiritsuke-japanese-sushi-sashimi-knife-with-double-nickel-silver-ring-corian-ebony-handle","provider":"Yoshihiro Cutlery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
