Product Overview

Prepare sashimi with the Sekiryu SR270-S, a Japanese knife with a long, narrow 270 mm blade and a pointed tip. The slender profile is suited to drawing slices from boneless fish, while the pale poplar handle and black nylon bolster give it a traditional appearance.

Made in Seki, Japan, it combines 420J2 stainless steel with a blade hardness of HRC 50–53. The 270 mm model sits between the matching 240 mm and 300 mm knives, offering extra blade length without moving to the longest size.

A 270 mm blade for sashimi slicing

The 270 mm blade gives the SR270-S its long, narrow slicing profile. Use the length of the edge in a controlled drawing motion when portioning boneless fish for sashimi, with enough clear board space for the blade to travel.

The 270 mm model sits between the matching 240 mm and 300 mm knives, offering extra blade length without moving to the longest size. Blade length measures the cutting blade; the overall dimensions below include the handle.

Care for the blade and wooden handle

Wash the knife by hand with mild dish soap, rinse it and dry both the blade and wooden handle promptly. Avoid abrasive cleaners and do not leave the wooden handle soaking in water.

Store the knife with its edge protected and enough room for its full length. Keep this slender sashimi blade for slicing boneless ingredients rather than chopping through bones or frozen food.
