Sushi Knives

Whether one is an amateur or a master sushi chef, all agree that a fine Japanese knife is essential in creating impeccable sushi and sashimi. Traditional Japanese sushi knives are fashioned primarily with round wooden handles, which provide a comfortable, slip-resistant grip. The finest Japanese knives are constructed from high quality, light Japanese steel or carbon. The bulk of the knife should be focused at the end of the blade, which allows for rapid, comfortable movements.
