Unagi Saki - Niji
$1,325.00
Unagi Sakis are traditionally single bevel blades mostly used for eel fabrication. This blade, however, was ground double bevel with a convex edge making it universal. The profile of an unagi saki has always been one of the more beautiful designs in Japanese cutlery.
The Tanto tip allows for piercing into flesh to create a starting point in fabrication of meat. The edge curvature of the blade simulates that of a gyuto, slight rock and flat for push pull cuts.
While its hard to share through just a picture, the jacket of the blade is copper and brass.
No knife is the same as they are intended to be unique to their
