Our master craftsmen utilize time-honored methods and techniques passed down through generations to create knives of the highest caliber. The hand forging process, conducted from a single piece of high carbon steel, demands extraordinary skill as it withstands temperatures soaring into the thousands within a blazing furnace.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach Yoshihiro Honyaki knife is handcrafted with meticulous care by artisans who possess incomparable skill, many with over 50 years of experience. The term Honyaki signifies the pinnacle of Japanese knife craftsmanship, requiring seasoned masters versed in the ancient art of sword making. Crafted from a single piece of White Steel #2, with a Rockwell hardness of 65, this steel is heated in hearths exceeding thousands of degrees, quenched in cool water for enhanced hardness, and polished to a brilliant mirror finish. This process creates knives that seamlessly blend aesthetic beauty with exceptional performance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOur Yoshihiro Honyaki knives feature a traditional Japanese-style handcrafted premium Ebony wood handle, affixed with a Water Buffalo horn bolster, ensuring both comfort and elegance. Each knife is accompanied by a rare artisan-crafted Saya, a protective wooden sheath made from premium Ebony wood, which not only safeguards the knife but also enhances its appearance when not in use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Yanagi is a long slicing knife specifically designed for cutting paper-thin slices of fish for sushi and sashimi, making it an essential tool in the arsenal of many chefs. Its elegantly thin blade allows for long, uninterrupted slicing motions, preserving the integrity and freshness of the ingredients. The Yanagi is slightly heavier, featuring a wider blade and a thicker spine, with a sword tip that aids in balancing the knife's weight. This design makes it particularly suitable for chefs working in smaller spaces who desire the precision and finesse that a Yanagi offers. Even the simplest culinary tasks are transformed with a handcrafted knife that marries beauty and functionality.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"tab-content\" id=\"specs\"\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eKnife Specs:\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHRC:\u003c\/strong\u003e 65\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGrade:\u003c\/strong\u003e Honyaki Mirror Polished Namiukashi\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStain Resistant:\u003c\/strong\u003e No\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBlade Material:\u003c\/strong\u003e White Steel #2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEdge Angle:\u003c\/strong\u003e Single Edged\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHandle Material:\u003c\/strong\u003e Ebony\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBolster Material:\u003c\/strong\u003e Triple Nickel Silver Ring Water Buffalo Horn (color varies)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHandle Shape:\u003c\/strong\u003e Octagonal\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSaya Cover:\u003c\/strong\u003e Special Designed Ebony\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Yoshihiro Cutlery","offers":[{"title":"10.5\" (270mm)","offer_id":43734322807014,"sku":"HYYAMINAMI270TSVEHES","price":1399.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"11.8\" (300mm)","offer_id":43734322839782,"sku":"HYYAMINAMI300TSVEHES","price":1549.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"13\" (330mm)","offer_id":43734322872550,"sku":"HYYAMINAMI330TSVEHES","price":1699.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0505\/4778\/5915\/products\/yoshihiro-mizu-honyaki-mirror-finished-namiukashi-white-steel-2-yanagi-sushi-sashimi-japanese-knife-triple-nickel-silver-ring-ebony-handle-and-premium-ebony-saya-01.jpg?v=1753476285","url":"https:\/\/echefknifv.com\/products\/yoshihiro-mizu-honyaki-mirror-finished-namiukashi-white-steel-2-yanagi-sushi-sashimi-japanese-knife-triple-nickel-silver-ring-ebony-handle-and-premium-ebony-saya","provider":"Yoshihiro Cutlery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
