This Masahiro knife is a takobiki, a traditional sashimi knife with a squared blade tip used for slicing fish for sashimi and sushi. The blade is specialty stainless steel, and the handle is laminated reinforced wood for a sturdy, comfortable grip.
Masahiro brings together its full range of blade making expertise in every knife it produces. The balanced weight is easy on the hand during longer prep sessions, and the sharp, long edge works with the texture of the fish rather than against it, which helps bring out the best in your sashimi.
This knife is made in Japan and is offered in two blade lengths, 20 cm and 24 cm, so you can choose the size that fits your prep style.
