Suminagashi translates as `floating ink` and refers to the beautiful marbled wave like patterns that extend through the blade from the tip to the heel, unveiling a new mosaic with every sharpening. Only the most skilled of artisans can forge together these metals in such complex puzzle piece formations to fashion knives of this caliber with the highest quality, blending aesthetics and performance. Our Yoshihiro White Steel #2 Hammered Damascus Suminagashi knives are complimented with a traditional Japanese style handcrafted octagonal shaped rose wood handle of the highest quality and affixed with double bolster. This knife comes with an artisan crafted Saya, a protective wooden sheath made of premium lacquered Magnolia wood which protects the knife and adds to its appearance when not in use. The Yanagi is a long slicing knife that was designed to slice thin slices of fish for sushi and sashimi.

The Yanagi is one of the most essential of traditional Japanese knives and is a powerful component in the repertoire of many chefs.
