Yanagiba Knife, also known as Masamoto, ideal for preparing Sashimi, sliced raw fish and seafood. Used widely in the Kansai region surrounding Osaka, in western Japan. The length of the knife is suitable to fillet medium sized fish.

Product Overview

The TU-6006 is a Shimomura yanagi with an 8-5/8-inch vanadium stainless-steel blade and strengthened black wooden handle. Its long, narrow single-bevel blade is intended for sashimi, sliced raw fish and seafood preparation.

The Japanese-made knife measures 13-3/4 inches overall. A half tang extends into the riveted grip, which offers moisture resistance and repeats the dark, squared handle treatment of the companion TU-6005 deba.

A narrow slicing format

The 8-5/8-inch blade gives this yanagi a different working outline from a broad deba. Its long cutting edge is intended for sashimi and sliced seafood preparation.

Single-bevel yanagi

A long, narrow blade for sashimi and seafood preparation.

Vanadium stainless steel

A stainless-steel blade with a defined bevel.

Half-tang wooden grip

Strengthened black wood with visible rivets.

A defined single-bevel edge

Single-bevel construction is an important selection detail beyond the knife’s overall length. The narrow blade and pointed front should be compared with the exact cutting format of other sashimi knives.

Wooden handle and half tang

The squared black wooden grip has two visible rivets and a half-tang construction. Its moisture-resistant wood coordinates with the TU-6005 while retaining the longer yanagi blade.
