Why Chefs Trust It

The Phantom Series yanagiba is a sashimi slicing master. Featuring a long, narrow blade that ensures paper-thin slices of fish (and other meats), this ultra-sharp blade sails through fibres in the flesh without tearing or pulling. The blade is thicker than standard kitchen knives to provide heft, rigidity and push the sliced piece away from the fish or body of meat. The yanagiba is a single-bevel blade used primarily by Asian chefs, however they are increasingly popular in the West and used for boneless proteins such as raw poultry slicing, flank, hanger steak, pork tenderloins and other moist and tender meats. Ensure the cleanest cuts imaginable with this precision instrument.

It bought this knife

"It bought this knife second hand and I love it! The d handle locks into your grip and the blade has a wicked sharp edge. The sheath fits perfectly. I will be buying more of the set!"

"Worth the money, very well made!"

Steve (5/5)

This knife is super

"This knife is super dope! It’s a smaller yanagiba that cuts through fish with ease. I use it to cut eel and have perfect slices right through the skin. It’s a must have for any sushi chef!"

Marty L. (5/5)

I was sent a

"I was sent a damaged knife the first time customer service was great about resolving the problem they said they were sending me a new one but somewhere between dalstrong and the postal service the knife has been lost so I have not received it yet so I don’t know if the knife is actually any good I’ve got two other knives that need to be repaired/replaced but I’m not sure if it’s worth it along with knives being discontinued that just says that they are out of stock (sold out) and you don’t find out until you finally text them to find out when it’s going to be available again I own like 12 knives and most of them I don’t have a problem with"

Jason R. (4/5)

Good knife but make

"Good knife but make sure to hone that bad boy in. Update, company sent new knife after this review and the new one is great."

Schultek28 (5/5)

Out of all of

"Out of all of the knives I've bought from dalstrong this one is my go to. The light weight makes it more manageable for continuous use. Also the metal is strong enough to hold an edge , but not so soft that its a pain to sharpen."

Devon (5/5)

i have quite a

"i have quite a few dalestrong knifes from most of the different series never a disappointment but have been looking for ""THE KNIFE"" and have finally found it! this Kiritsuke is awesome n glides through veg. excellent length and comfortable. i cut well over 500 qts of various veg a week, I've been using this knife almost exclusively for almost a month with just a couple swipes on my honing rod a day n again it just glides through."

Michael F. (5/5)

If you need to

"If you need to cut fish and don't mind dealing with sharpening it when you get it, it's great. If you need to do literally any other task, just get a kiritsuke or gyuto (depending on your technique) or (if you eat a lot of fish, don't want many knives, etc. ) a kiritsuke-yanagi. Steel is meh but it does hold an edge, albeit not as long or as well as ZDJ-189 or Aogami super. Overall, I rarely use this knife, even with fish, after I got my Miyabi kiritsuke. If I need el cheapo, I have a gyuto I got for free that's worth roughly $50 that travels if I don't need a particularly nice knife."
