Key Features
Yasuki Yellow Paper #2 Steel Core
  • Steel Type: Hitachi Yasuki Yellow Paper #2 (Yellow #2, 黄紙二号) high-carbon steel
  • Hardness: 62±2 HRC for extreme sharpness and edge life
  • Performance: Pure carbon composition allows ultra-fine edges and easy re-sharpening—ideal for single-bevel sashimi knives
Traditional Single-Bevel Geometry (Kataba)
  • Flat back (uraoshi) ensures uniform slicing surfaces
  • Angled front bevel minimizes cutting resistance
  • Produces paper-thin, tear-free slices without compressing fish fibers
Hand-Thinned & Mirror-Polished Blade
  • Blade is progressively hand-thinned and multi-stage polished
  • No machine grinding marks; smooth surface reduces drag and prevents fish flesh adhesion
Lightweight Octagonal Handle
  • Material: Hackberry wood with black ox horn ferrule (buffalo horn alternative)
  • Shape: Anti-slip octagonal profile for precise handling
  • Balance: Optimized weight distribution reduces wrist fatigue during extended use
Best Uses
  • Sashimi & Sushi Slicing - Tuna, salmon, snapper, and white fish
  • Single-Stroke Pull Cuts - Clean, uninterrupted slicing motion
  • Fine Vegetable Work - Daikon, cucumber, garnishes
  • Professional Daily Prep - High-volume restaurant service
Care & Maintenance
  1. Hand wash only; never dishwasher safe
  2. Dry thoroughly before storing
  3. Apply food-safe mineral oil regularly to prevent oxidation
  4. Use Japanese whetstones for sharpening single-bevel edges
  5. Avoid bones, frozen foods, or hard surfaces
