The Yanagi is specifically designed for slicing raw fish for sushi and sashimi, or delicate cuts of other soft proteins.\u003cbr\u003e\nThe long, thin blade allows for clean, precise cuts, ensuring the delicate texture and presentation of the fish are maintained. Its single-bevel edge facilitates effortless slicing in one smooth motion, minimizing damage to the fish and preserving its natural flavor and appearance. Its hollow-ground backside, known as the Ura, helps facilitate the release of fish as it is sliced.\u003cbr\u003e\nThe Yanagi knife is an essential tool for professional chefs and sushi enthusiasts aiming for perfection in their culinary creations.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Tadafusa","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67758094156145,"sku":"57316","price":240.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1014\/7459\/9281\/files\/57316_Tadafusa_SLD_Yanagi_210mmHK-7_Left_Handed.jpg?v=1792281971","url":"https:\/\/asc-forge.com\/products\/tadafusa-sld-yanagi-210mm-hk-7-left-handed","provider":"ASC Forge","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
