MAC yanagiba of 27 cm in shirogami-2 (white-2)
The yangiba is intended for cutting fish for sashimi and sushi rolls. The model here from MAC is the classic one in two layers of steel with a hard core and soft back. The core steel here is shirogami-2, i.e. white steel, which is an alloy that rusts, but at the same time has a very high potential for sharpness - higher than for aogami.
The knife is only for right-handers - the handle is made of magnolia wood and buffalo horn.
