Using a single piece of White Steel #2 with a Rockwell hardness of 65, the steel is heated in hearths to scorching temperatures, quenched in cool water for hardness, and then meticulously polished to a brilliant mirror finish. The result is a blade that combines exceptional sharpness, strength, and a stunning aesthetic, blending performance and beauty seamlessly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Yoshihiro Honyaki knives are complemented with a traditional Japanese-style handcrafted Ebony wood handle, affixed with a Water Buffalo horn bolster, providing both elegance and functionality.

Unlike other knives that may damage cell walls and alter texture, the traditional Yanagi leaves fish smooth, shiny, and fresh.
