KAI Seki Magoroku Kinju - سكين ياناغيبا (8.25")

The blade glides through salmon like butter, leaving a mirror-smooth cut that actually holds up on the board. I've owned other slicers, but the length here gives me the leverage to do one clean pull instead of sawing.

The blade’s length makes slicing through raw salmon feel almost effortless, and the first cut on a sashimi platter was noticeably cleaner than what I’m used to. I appreciate how thin the slices come out—it’s exactly what I needed for better presentation.

The 8.25 inch blade glides through ahi tuna like it's soft butter, and I finally got paper-thin sashimi slices without tearing the fish. The edge is scary sharp out of the box, so I keep it in its sleeve between uses.
