Fu-Rin-Ka-Zan Hon Kasumi Series Blue Steel No.2 Kiritsuke Yanagiba (240mm to 300mm, 3 Sizes)

Availability: Normally ships the same day


Our Japanese traditional-style Fu-Rin-Ka-Zan knives are hand forged and hand sharpened by our team of top-ranking forge-smiths, sharpeners and craftsmen in Sakai City, Osaka. We have confidence that these knives will be well received because of the following advantages:

  1. The level of craftsmanship offered by our special team of artisans:
  • Because our team of craftsmen pay extra attention during the production of the knife, especially during ‘fit and finishing’, the knives have an excellent level of overall quality and are aesthetically beautiful.
  • No compromises are made during the finishing and fitting of the blade and handle. Particular attention is paid to the spine, the finger choil / heel, and the gap between the blade tang and the handle (The “Machi”). This extra work is not just important for the overall appearance of the knife; it also allows a more comfortable grip and provides a more secure handle. As a result, these knives are perfect for customers who care about both the aesthetic appearance and the functionality of their knives.
  1. We have a direct relationship with our team of top-ranking craftsmen in Sakai:
  • This allows us to offer you the very highest quality knives at especially low prices.
  • This allows us to offer you a wide range of traditional Japanese Hon Kasumi(“True Mist”, or “True Haze”) style knives, in both Blue No. 2 high carbon steel and Gingami No. 3 stainless steel.

This knife has a cutting edge of Hitachi Blue No. 2 high carbon steel that has been forge welded with soft iron / steel for increased toughness and ease of re-sharpening. Blue Steel No.2 is a very reliable Japanese high carbon steel that is often used for high-grade Japanese traditional-style knives due to the combination of cutting performance, edge retention and ease of re-sharpening that it offers.

This knife comes with a comfortable octagonal magnolia wood handle with black water buffalo horn ferrule / bolster, and includes a matching magnolia wood Saya (“Sheath”) -with black pakkawood saya pin- for safekeeping.

The Kirisuke Yanagiba has a very similar blade profile to the ‘regular’ Yanagiba, but it has what is commonly known as a 'reverse tanto' tip, or ‘clipped point’, which is very useful for precision cutting. Apart from this difference, the Kirisuke Yanagiba functions in the same way as the ‘plain' Yanagiba or the Takohiki.

Excellent Quality Knife

Fine finish, Razor sharp initial blade. If you can't cut sashimi nicely with this knife, you will never find other better knife

Unbeatable craftsmanship for the price

The level of detail in this is extraordinary. The seem between the plastic cap on handle to the wooden rest is undetectable. The "wave pattern" on the blade adds elegance and the dimple above the kiritsuke tip is unique and found on the saya as well. Even the wooden peg fo the saya has a nice marbled effect. Best "house brand" of a knife I have ever seen.
