Masashi Shirogami Sakimaru Takobiki 300mm

About the Shape -Ā The Takobiki is a Kanto region (Tokyo) variation of theĀ yanagiba, it translatesĀ toĀ "octopus cutter", but isn't limited to just being used to prepare octopus, you'll find it will be adept at any task you might use aĀ yanagibaĀ for, such as preparing sashimi or slicing meat. It can beĀ traditionallyĀ found with a square tip, but alsoĀ it has become more popular recentlyĀ to see it with the Sakimari tip and is always single-bevel for that extra level of sharpness.

About Masashi Single Bevel knives -Ā Masashi-san started his own workshop in 2013, after learning the family trade alongside his older brother Kazuomi at Yoshikane Hamono.Ā  Despite his young age, Masashi makes a beautifully polished and crazy sharp blade and is able to make his steel harder than other makers through special heat-treating processes.

Masashi-san has outdone himself again. He started as a blacksmith making double-bevel knives, and his transition to single bevel blades has been flawless. These are forged with shirogami and perform like a traditional single-bevel blade, with all of the flash of Masashi knife.
