"Shinji" is a Japanese style yanagiba knife, used for slicing ultra-thin slices for sashimi and preparation for sushi. The long blade allows the Chef to slice fish especially, in one stroke to ensure consistency between slices and minimal edges on each slice.
Comes with a stylish box, this is a great gift for the Chef, or for the seafood lover, at home.
Highlights:
- The blade, available in 8.5", 9.5" and 10.5" is crafted from high carbon 440C stainless steel that is hardened to reach 56-58 HRC
- Its 6.5" ergonomic handle is made from Millettia Laurentii and is longer than our other knives to ensure maximum control
- The blade is 4.5mm thick and has a unique, single sided design
