Introducing the 13-inch Yanagiba - the longest blade we've ever made.
For long and deep, straight cuts, the 13-inch Yanagiba can skin large fish in one deft motion.
The 13-inch Yanagiba is handcrafted from Japanese Honshu 本州 steel molten at more than 3092 °F by the shorelines of Tokyo Bay, Japan.
It is sharpened by Kamikoto's master knifesmiths through a process refined over generations. Each Yanagiba knife is individually inspected before it leaves our workshop.
