Vintage Japan yanagiba kitchen knife – 33 cm
Beautiful vintage Japanese yanagiba knife with an elegant, slender shape and a fine tip. This type of knife is specifically designed for precise slicing and is particularly suitable for filleting and finely cutting fish, sashimi and other delicate ingredients. Thanks to the long, narrow blade you can make smooth, clean cuts with a lot of control.
The knife has an authentic look with subtle signs of use that fit the age and character of a vintage piece. The blade still shows Japanese characters, which adds extra charm and originality. The traditional wooden handle provides a warm, natural look and sits comfortably in the hand.
The total length is 33 cm. This makes it an interesting knife for lovers of Japanese kitchen knives, collectors, or hobby cooks who are looking for a characterful and functional specimen.
The knife is in vintage used condition and shows normal signs of age and use, as visible in the photos. A beautiful and decorative piece, but at the same time a knife with practical value for those who appreciate traditional Japanese quality.
