The Tadafusa Hocho Kobo range of household knives combines a contemporary look with the traditional hand forged knife making techniques of the company. The HK-7 yanagiba knife is a single-beveled knife for fish or other fine slicing, making it ideal for right handed cooks who wish to fillet cleanly and precisely.
The blade combines SLD steel which provides a sharp cutting edge with a stainless steel coating for the body. The chestnut handle is heat treated in order to prevent shrinkage and to increase bacterial resistance.
