This quintessential sushi knife glides through raw proteins with effortless precision, aided by drag-reducing etched laminations. An octagonal ebony PakkaWood handle provides a secure grip, while the included wooden saya sheath preserves the blade’s artisan integrity. Experience the pinnacle of culinary performance where strength meets breathtaking beauty.

I have a lot of high- end knives and was debating on pulling the trigger on a Yani since I'm not a sushi chef or a pro but I've been mesmerized by this knife for a couple years. I'm so happy I got it, it's a work of art! I've used it to fillet a few fish I've caught and for slicing roasts and steaks, haven't noticed it " steering" me due to single bevel, it's so sharp and has perfect weight. Not a laser like a Yu so I've got more confidence if I'm cutting a rib roast or something with a bone-in. Beautiful work of functional art. Haven't had to sharpen yet but will definately do it myself, I'm confident in my ability to sharpen and not scratch it. It is one fine tool. BTW, it's not my most expensive knife. You only live once, may as well enjoy it.. Anthony Y.. Sun Feb 22 2026

This knife is a double-beveled "deba" knife (Japanese fish knife), the wide blade is great for cutting meat and fish.

Finally broke down and spent the money on great knife. For anybody who doesn't think it's worth it, it is! This knife was exactly what I wanted, and I know its extra sharp because its new, but the quality steel will hold that edge much longer, and the wide blade is a definite plus over a standard blade when chopping and scooping up stuff to toss in a pan. Great weight, and good enough handle feel to use for a while without fatigue. Do yourself a favor, get this knife!. Brett. Sun Apr 26 2020
