The single-bevel design allows an incredible sharp edge that's easy to maintain. The blade is one-sided high-carbon stainless-steel and the handle is sturdy polypropylene blended with real bamboo powder. The hollow-ground back creates an air pocket between the blade and the food being cut, resulting in less sticking to the blade and less friction damage to the food. Embellished with Japanese characters for "wasabi," which means harmony and tranquility, the knife carries a limited lifetime warranty.

5.0 out of 5 stars A great knife at a great price, September 25, 2005
This review is from: Wasabi by Kershaw 9-1/2-Inch Yanagiba Knife (Kitchen)
I own several knives from the Shun Classic line and decided to give this one a try to see if I liked the blade design before purchasing a yanagiba from the Shun Pro line. I was pleasantly surprised. The knife is super sharp and cuts through meat effortlessly. It may not be as pretty as my Shuns, but it gets the job done. My only complaint is that the handle is a little smaller than what I'm used to. Other than that, I love this knife and have been recommending the Wasabi line to my friends who like to cook but aren't as fanatic about it as I am.

5.0 out of 5 stars Long, Thin, Sharp!, January 23, 2006

This review is from: Wasabi by Kershaw 9-1/2-Inch Yanagiba Knife (Kitchen)
Great for slicing fresh fish, meats and even some general kitchen tasks. I used it for a week straight in my kitchen after getting it and the blade held up well. The knife faced the dishwasher with no problems and held an edge better than I expected. A valuable addition to my kitchen, and a bargain for such a quality knife.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great knives for the casual cook, April 5, 2007
By 
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Wasabi by Kershaw 9-1/2-Inch Yanagiba Knife (Kitchen)
Even if you're a casual chef, there is nothing more frustrating than having knives that don't cut or lose their edge after one use. My buddy has several Shun Pro knives and recommended these knives because they are much more cost effective and good for the cook just starting out. These knives are incredibly sharp. I made a steak last night and simply placed the yanagiba on the meat and drew it back and voila, the meat was cut in half. I also bought the 4 1/2" Deba and the 8 1/2" Deba. I got those 3 knives for less than the price of one Shun Pro chef's knife. With the exception of a nice paring knife, these are all the knives you will need for a long time. And what's more, Kershaw will sharpen them for free. You just pay to ship them. Great value!
