SOLD 300mm Kitaoka Blue #2 Yanigaba

[Brian Weekley]

Another neglected great knife. New in box, never used.

A very nice Yanigaba, but in a large lineup of Yanigaba’s it’s not going to get used by me. It needs a new home.

Single bevel, long and SHARP. Perfect for slicing fish or any other boneless protein. Hitachi Blue #2 steel. Rosewood D shaped handle. Black pakkawood ferrule. The price tag on the box says $589. How about $225 plus shipping. Cheap enough for a gift for your favourite sushi chef.

Specs are …

Blade length … 315mm
Edge length … 293mm
Depth at heel … 35mm
Thickness measured at spine … 4.36mm at heel, 4.16mm mid blade, 2.06mm 1” from tip.
Weight … 226gms

Deals not done yet. It’s going to Europe and the shipping is a bit expensive.

It’s gone to a great KKF member and a great home in Finland.

Thanks all and in accordance with my policy I’ll be making a small donation to KKF.

Damn, as a cook who uses a 300 yanagiba everyday, this was an AMAZING deal.
