Once an essential tool of Japanese fisherman, the funayuki (literally “boat-going knife”), is designed as the original do-it-all knife for fish, meats and vegetables. The 6½-inch long, leaf-shaped blade is tall enough to safely chop through large amounts of ingredients at one time like a cleaver, yet it tapers quickly to a fine tip for precision tasks. The strongly arced blade and forward stance excels at cutting meats, though it minces and rock chops vegetables equally well. The curve extends the blade length for cleaner slicing in a compact package.

Net Weight: 160 grams
Dimensions:
-Blade Length: 6.5 inches
-Blade Height: 2.2 inches
-Thickness: 1.5mm
Materials: 1.4116 German Stainless Steel, Polymer Handle

We recommend handwashing knives after each use. Do not put in dishwasher. To maintain the blade's edge, sharpen the Funayuki at a 17 degree angle.

A Tried-and-True Knife Favored by Japanese Fishermen

The Pronounced Curve in the Blade Makes This Knife the Ultimate Mincing Machine

A continuous arc from tip to butt facilitates smooth rock chopping and mincing and slices like a much longer knife.

Boning a Chicken or Trimming a Pork Tenderloin Has Never Been Easier

The funayuki’s compact length and sharp point provides accuracy and control for any task.

A Featherweight Knife That Effortlessly Slices Through Ingredients—While Still Being Sturdy

At only 1.5mm thick at the spine, this blade passes through foods with minimal effort.

Ergonomic Handle Adapts to a Wide Range of Hand Sizes

Broad across the top and tapering toward the bottom, the handle comfortably and securely fills a clenched hand.

No-Slip Pinch Grip Provides an Ideal Control Point for a Pinch Grip While Slicing

A grippy file pattern adds traction when pinch gripping the blade at the spine (the most secure way to hold a kitchen knife).

Premium Blade Steel Will Hold a Keen Edge and Will Never Rust

The blade is fashioned from high-quality 1.4116 German stainless steel, which stays sharp with minimal honing and won’t discolor with use.
