The Yanagiba is the most common style of knife for slicing sashimi. The 26cm blade is made of a single piece of steel with a curved cutting edge, and has one bevel. It's perfect for slicing through raw fish and vegetables like carrots, cucumbers, onions, and more! Ideal for left-handed chefs or right-handed chefs who are feeling lazy.

The MAC Japanese Series Yanagiba Left Handed knife helps you bring that professional cooking experience to your own kitchen at home. It's an extremely easy knife to work with and will last for years with the right care.

To ensure the knife stays in the best shape possible, it should be sharpened regularly, and should be cleaned only with warm water and a light detergent before being left to fully dry in between each use. It shouldn't be used in the dishwasher, submerged in water, or cleaned with a hard or rough sponge that could cause damage to the blade.

Although it's designed for a special purpose, it also makes a great all-round knife for every kitchen and will easily cut through the toughest cuts of meat, hard fruits and vegetables with ease.
