Yanagi 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-9013 is a Japanese-made Shimomura yanagi with a 10-3/4-inch stainless-steel blade. The long, pointed slicing profile is intended for sashimi, sliced raw fish and seafood, paired with a strengthened ebony-wood handle.

The complete knife measures 15-1/2 inches. A welded, non-seam stainless-steel bolster forms the blade-to-handle junction, while the dark riveted grip offers water resistance. This is a longer slicing option than the TU-6006.

An extended sashimi slicing profile

The blade runs into a narrow pointed tip, with substantially more cutting length than the 8-5/8-inch TU-6006. The complete 15-1/2-inch knife is intended for fish and seafood preparation.

10-3/4-inch slicing blade

A long, narrow stainless-steel yanagi profile.

Ebony-wood handle

Strengthened dark wood with water resistance.

Non-seam steel bolster

A welded stainless-steel transition at the handle.

A welded bolster at the grip

The stainless-steel bolster creates a distinct transition from the blade to the dark wooden handle. It differs from the separate plastic collar used on the traditional-style Kai yanagiba.

Compare length and handle construction

The strengthened ebony handle has a curved profile and visible rivets. Comparing both blade length and grip construction helps distinguish this model from other long, black-handled slicing knives.
