The Katana Saya Sashimi Knife 27cm from the Eastern Pakkawood range is an essential tool for any sushi lover or professional chef who values precision and finesse in the art of sashimi preparation. Sashimi, the Japanese delicacy of thinly sliced raw fish, requires an expertly crafted knife capable of making clean, delicate cuts that preserve the texture and integrity of the fish. This knife, with its long and slender blade, is designed specifically for this purpose, allowing you to effortlessly slice raw fish with exceptional precision. The blade is 27cm in length, making it the larger version of two available sizes. Its extended length allows for even more control and precision when preparing larger cuts of fish or when working with large vegetables. The one-sided ground blade ensures that each slice is smooth and clean, without tearing or compromising the freshness of the fish. This blade's long, slender shape is perfect for slicing through delicate ingredients with ease, allowing you to create perfect sashimi or sushi pieces that are visually stunning and perfectly portioned. Crafted from 67 layers of VG-10 Damascus steel, the blade offers outstanding sharpness, strength, and durability. The VG-10 core provides exceptional edge retention, keeping the blade sharp for extended periods, while the Damascus cladding enhances the blade’s resistance to corrosion.

The elegant layered pattern of the Damascus steel not only adds to the knife's visual appeal but also contributes to its toughness, ensuring that it can handle the demands of even the busiest kitchens. With a Rockwell hardness rating of 60+, the blade remains sharp even through extensive use, making it an invaluable tool in the kitchen. The knife’s handle is made from high-quality black Pakkawood, a material known for its durability, moisture resistance, and ergonomic design.

The handle strikes a perfect balance between opulence and practicality, providing a secure and comfortable grip during use. The knife also comes in an elegant wooden ‘Saya’ sheath that offers ideal protection for the blade, ensuring safe storage and preventing accidental injury when not in use.
