"Yanagiba" means "willow blade." The long, thin, willowy blade with the traditional Japanese single-bevel edge is pulled through the food, reducing loss of the natural juices and creating the cleanest cuts imaginable.
The polished blades of the Wasabi Black Series are made of newly developed corrosion-resistant 6A/1K6 steel with a hardness value of 58 (±1) HRC. The extensive range offers both double bevel blade shapes, as well as traditional Japanese single bevel blade shapes. The slightly arched back of the blade allows a secure grip during work, making it easier to make fine rocking movements, for example.
The matt black plastic grip is water-resistant and thus particularly robust. Its oval or chestnut shape depends on the blade size and exhibits a pleasant, natural feel thanks to the addition of bamboo powder. The handle and stainless steel blade are permanently moulded together, ruling out the accumulation of dirt.
