Sakai Takayuki Yellow Steel New Kasumitogi Funayuki – Japanese Fish Preparation Knife

The Sakai Takayuki New Kasumitogi Funayuki is a traditional Japanese single-bevel knife designed for fish preparation and versatile cutting tasks.

The blade is made from Yasuki Yellow Steel (Kigami), a traditional Japanese Carbon Steel offering good sharpness, easy sharpening, and practical performance for everyday kitchen use.

The Funayuki was originally developed for fishermen working on boats. Its thinner and lighter blade compared with a traditional Deba makes it suitable for preparing small to medium-sized fish, including cleaning, filleting, and portioning.

Because of its versatile design, the Funayuki can also be used for general food preparation such as cutting meat, vegetables, and other ingredients, making it a practical multi-purpose single-bevel knife for users who appreciate traditional Japanese knife techniques.

The knife features a traditional magnolia wood handle with a black resin bolster, providing a practical and comfortable grip for everyday use.

The New Kasumitogi series offers an affordable way to experience traditional Japanese knife shapes with practical materials, making this Funayuki an excellent choice for home users interested in Japanese single-bevel knives.

*Blade Length of the Knife defines the length from top edge of the blade(tip) to Root of the steel(Machi), not top edge of the blade(tip) to the end(Ago).

** This is made of Carbon Steel, not Stainless Steel. Please be sure to keep DRY after use or it may get rust.
