Looks great and is super sharp out of packaging
Context: I just started making sushi and I am an amateur cook. I have just opened the plastic cover packaging and am eager to provide feedback. I will update this in a couple of weeks once I have used the knife.> First impressions - Wow! This looks and feels great.> Sharpness out of box - This is scary sharp and levels above the Nego one I purchased which I am returning. The edge, I am happy to confirm is as described a 6 and 15 degrees (by eye). This cuts through paper with ease.> Appearance - This looks stunning and for only £30 I am hoping it will perform to a good standard. I have already bought sharpening wet stones for when needed.> Value - As long as there is no major faults during use, I would say this is excellent value.> Yanagiba Authenticity - From my research true Yanagiba (right hand versions) knives have are concave on the left side while looking down the knife from handle to tip. This one is flat. But for the price it appears very close.> Performance - Tbc at a later date.Summary: If you are looking for a budget Yanagiba, this is the best one I have been able to find so far. Go for it!

The handle is NOT Wood
Good knife. Swore it said wood handle. Its actually an artificial tactile rubber handle. Was a bit disappointed but suspect the handle will outlive me. i.e.. this material used in handle has about a 20 year life before it wears through

Fantastic knife
Have the whole collection, and while my Nakiri gets the most use, this is a dream for dicing anything that's already deboned.

Great knife
As a sushi chef, my works knives were getting a bit dull. I decided to treat myself to this with my Xmas money. What a difference! Filleting a salmon now takes half the time, and my nigiri game is on point. Love this! I feel almost professional now

Very good knife for Sashimi
This is a well made knife - has more than adequate length for a nice long action for sashimi.The one sided bevel is excellent for the purpose and also filetting the fish is very smooth.The 30 length perhaps is on the longer side for me and the shorter version may be better for speed.Overall - faultless in sharpness and weight. The flexibility is adequate as well.Very satisfied.
