Japanese Chef Knife Aritsugu Takohiki Special 240 mm 9.44" White Steel Personalized Name
You can slice fish and make sushi, sashimi easily. Your cooking will go through a dramatic change!
This is a special Takohiki knife. It is made not only stainless steels and ceramics, but also white steel #2.
It has a straighter blade line than Yanagiba. The width of the blade is narrow, so you can move away from the blade. One of the advantages is that the length does not become shorter even when sharpened.
White 2 steel is softer than blue steel, making it easier to sharpen. It is a recommended item for those who have a kitchen knife for the first time.
The size is the length from the tip of the blade to the gusset (to the gap between the handle and the knife), not the length of the blade.
