About the Kiritsuke Yanagi: The Kiritsuke Yanagi is a variation of the "Yanagi" Knife. It is used to slice boneless fish fillets into sashimi and sushi. The graceful, long, and thin blade is designed to cut slices in one drawing stroke, which applies minimal pressure on the flesh of the fish to avoid stress and cell destruction.
