Product Overview

The Sekiryu SR240-S is a yanagi-style sashimi knife with a 240-millimeter blade, a pale poplar-wood handle and a black nylon bolster. The long, narrow 420J2 stainless-steel blade is designed for fish and seafood slicing rather than the wider working profile of a deba or general-purpose chef’s knife.

This is the shortest of the matching 240, 270 and 300-millimeter SR sashimi models. Its overall length is 14½ inches, so blade length and total footprint should be considered separately when selecting the knife for the preparation area.

A narrow profile for sashimi preparation

The elongated blade tapers toward a pointed tip rather than widening into a broad chopping shape. Choose this sashimi pattern for its slicing format, and compare other knife types separately when the preparation calls for a different blade profile.

240 mm Sashimi Blade

Long, narrow yanagi-style profile for fish and seafood slicing.

420J2 Stainless Steel

The blade uses the specified stainless-steel grade.

Poplar Wood & Nylon

Natural wood handle meets the blade at a black nylon bolster.

Wood, nylon and steel meet at the handle

The pale poplar handle contrasts with the black bolster and silver blade. The natural wood remains the main visual element of the handle, with the dark collar forming a clear transition to the silver blade.

Separate blade length from the total footprint

The 240-millimeter measurement describes the blade, not the full knife. Allow for the 14½-inch overall length when selecting storage and arranging the workstation, and compare the matching 270- and 300-millimeter models if a longer sashimi blade is preferred.
