Knife-sheath - Japan - 1980-1990

Vintage Japanese ko-yanagiba kitchen knife with a compact, elegant form and a total length of 26 cm.

This smaller yanagiba model is ideal for fine slicing and precision work, for example with fish, meat, or vegetables.

The blade features a characterful finish with a rough, forged texture on the spine and a smoothly ground cutting edge. That combination gives the knife a beautiful authentic look.

The knife is sharp and ready to use.

The wooden handle with a brass-colored collar complements the vintage appearance of the knife nicely. Its size makes it comfortable to hold and it is also of interest to collectors of Japanese knives.

A stylish and characterful Japanese kitchen knife for enthusiasts, hobby cooks, or collectors.
