This is a Yanagiba knife commissioned by Ebisuya. It has a Yasuki steel stamp (the type of steel is unknown). The blade length is approximately 28.5cm. It is a single-edged knife. The handle is brass wrapped. I previously listed this item, but I had it sharpened and polished, so I retook the photos and relisted it. I'm not very familiar with Ebisuya commissions, but I believe it is a Sakai-made knife. The weight balance is good, and it's an easy-to-use size. Rust and scratches have been repaired, so it is now clean. It's an old knife, but it has been sharpened, so the sharpness is excellent. I think this size can be used by professionals and in general households. The cutting edge is a mirror finish, and the flat surface is also almost a mirror finish. It has been finished with a Shapton 12000 grit stone after a Kitayama 8000 grit stone. It is in a very sharp condition, so it can be used immediately. ● Size: Blade length approximately 285mm ● Blade thickness: Approximately 3.9mm at the thickest part of the base of the blade ● Overall length: 445mm ● Weight: 168g #Knife #EbisuyaCommission #Yanagiba #28.5cm #MirrorFinish
