A sashimi knife is one of the staple Japanese kitchen knives. It is used to cut raw fish and shellfish into thin slices for sashimi and other appropriate dishes. 
Stainless steel is rust and odor resistant. Although the sharpness of the blade deteriorates more quickly than steel, the rust resistance makes it ideal for infrequent household use because it is relatively easy to handle and does not require immense care.
Carbon Steel has an excellent sharpness. Steel knives are hardened and beaten to make them more dense, so it can be said that they are definitely strong knives. It is a material that requires frequent maintenance, but it is recommended for those who value sharp knives.

ABOUT THE MAKER

Kiku Ichi Monji | 菊一文字 | Kyoto, Kyoto Prefecture

Using the superb sword-making technique passed down through generations, Kiku Ichi Monji pledges to produce high-quality cutlery.

The name Kiku Ichi Monji comes from a unique engraved stamp by a sword smith Norimune. In the year 1208 the Emperor Gotoba gave permission to his sword smith Norimune to stamp the blade of each sword with the imperial chrysanthemum-crest. Norimune then engraved the number 1 below the crest. Thus the name Kiku Ichi Monji, chrysanthemum one, was created.
