Kirari Yanagiba Sashimi Filleting Knife

Our Kirari Yanagiba stainless steel 8-12 inch filleting knife is used to slice raw fish for sashimi and sushi. This knife is available in a left and right-handed version.

The name Yanagiba or Yanagi ba literally translates as ‘willow blade’. This describes the flexible nature of the long, narrow blade which adheres to the Japanese tradition of only being sharp on one side.

The sashimi knife is also known as a Sashimi Bocho.
