Knives for Right-Handed Users

Inspired by Zen Buddhism, the Wasabi knife series showcases pure Japanese aesthetics.

Yanagiba Knife

The Yanagiba (Japanese for willow blade) is a slender, long knife used for slicing and filleting fish. Its narrow, long blade makes it particularly suitable for cutting ultra-thin slices, making it ideal for preparing sushi and sashimi. This knife is perfect for artistic, smooth, and/or clean cuts.

Authentic Blade

The polished 21 cm long blade made of corrosion-resistant stainless steel was developed in Japan. The design combines a distinctive Far Eastern flair with practical hardness of 58±1 HRC for your daily cutting tasks.

Antibacterial Handle

The handle has been specifically designed for the Wasabi series and offers a natural antibacterial effect thanks to its unique combination of bamboo powder and polypropylene. The optimal hygiene properties primarily result from the bamboo content in the handle. The black, 12.6 cm long handle fully encases the blade, unlike traditional Japanese wooden handles that are simply attached. This ensures a firm connection between the blade and the handle, preventing dirt accumulation in small crevices. All these features make the Wasabi knife suitable for use in professional kitchens.
