Henckels Miyabi 5000 S - Yanagiba 9.5" (Traditional Slicing Knife) - 34507-243
The Miyabi Yanagiba is a 9.5" (240mm) willow leaf blade knife that is crafted with an asymmetrical blade. It's primary use is for fileting and cutting thin slices. Traditional sashimi knife.
BLADE
Zwilling J.A. Henckels special formula steel features an optimal ratio of carbon and chromium with other components to deliver the best possible combination of hardnes (approx. 57 Rockwell), high elasticity and corrosion resistance. Japanese asymmetric blades came about from a desire to cut ingredients like fish and vegetables in clean and elaborate ways. The special blade design allows for cutting techniques that are indespensible to Japanese cuisine. A knife with an asymmetric blade is distinguished by the "Shinogi-suji" line that tapers off towards the cutting edge. This tapering enables the extreme sharp blade profile that allows for the precise, fine and smooth cut.
