Make way for Japanese design perfection with this Tamahagane Tsubame sashimi knife!
Japanese craftsmanship is exemplary and remarkably well showcased in the Tsubame range. Did you know that tamahagane is a steel used in Japanese sword-making? The sharpness of samurai swords probably mirrors that of Tamahagane knives!
With the 24cm blade of this sashimi knife, you'll be able to slice your finest raw fish finely to make sashimi and please your customers or guests! Slice salmon or tuna in the blink of an eye: this knife will also come in handy for sushi.
The sharpness of this knife will satisfy you from the very first use. Made from VG5 steel, the blade's core contains a high carbon content, giving it a hardness of 59 HRC on the Rockwell scale. With this level of hardness, we recommend gentle sharpening with a 3000/8000 grit Sharpening stone. This core is wrapped in a softer steel to protect the VG5 and balance hardness and flexibility. This hardness means less frequent sharpening is required, and the quality of the cut is excellent. VG5 is very similar to VG10, and these steels have the same properties, except that VG5 is slightly more resistant to corrosion.
Hammering the blade is not just a question of design! As you cut your fish, you'll notice that it's less likely to stick to the blade, making your work more pleasant and saving you time.
The knife's handle is made from a mixture of resin and paper called micarta. This material is both robust and hygienic. The knife can be quickly cleaned by hand with the soft side of a sponge. Each handle has a unique gray-black veining: buying a Tamahagane knife is the guarantee of owning a knife that no other cook has!
This sashimi knife is a must-have for any fan of Japanese cuisine! Professionals and beginners alike will love it. Display your Tamahagane Tsubame knives on a magnet bar or magnetic block to give your guests an eyeful!
