Product Overview

The Verdun OVD-16 is a yanagi-style sashimi knife with a long, narrow 8¼-inch stainless-steel blade. Its tapered point and slim blade face distinguish it from the broader gyuto and deba shapes in the same range.

The complete knife measures 13¼ inches long by 1.25 inches wide and has a sculpted silver handle. Made in Japan, it offers the shorter of these two Verdun sashimi profiles; compare it with the 9⅜-inch-blade OVD-163 when selecting the working length for a fish-preparation station.
