Knife-sheath - Japan - 1990-2000

Authentic vintage Japanese Yanagiba knife, an elegant and traditional cutting knife designed especially for finely and precisely slicing fish, sashimi and sushi. This type of knife is known for its long, slim shape and exceptional cutting control.

The knife is razor-sharp and delivers clean, smooth cuts without snagging or fraying. The single-edged grind and the long blade make it ideal for those who value precision and technique in the kitchen.

The blade shows a beautiful, natural patina that underscores the vintage character and is adorned with Japanese inscriptions, indicating traditional craftsmanship. The wooden handle sits comfortably in the hand and fits perfectly with the knife's classic appearance.

The total length is 35 cm. An excellent choice for the experienced home cook, professional chef, or collector of Japanese knives who can appreciate authenticity and craftsmanship.

A characterful and functional knife with history — ready for use or as a valuable collector's piece.
