Hatsukokoro x Yoshihiro Yauji Blue 2 Damascus Yanagiba 240mm
$459.95
Imported directly from Japan.










This is an Ono Suzukaze santoku in the same line as the nakiri, the all-purpose blade at the heart of a Japanese kitchen.
Forged in Seki, it puts an SG2 powdered stainless core under sixty-nine layers of contrasting Damascus, polished to bring the pattern out, with a practical tsuchime hammered texture along the edge to fight food sticking. The tall profile rocks cleanly through herbs and vegetables, and the triangular pakkawood western-wa handle merges the balance of a wa handle with the grip of a western one.
The source's care routine: wash with neutral detergent and wipe dry after use, never the dishwasher, keep it off long heat, and sharpen regularly on a waterstone. The flat edge is for vegetables and protein, not bone.
Most of our products are handmade in Japan, and sometimes the one that you receive maybe slightly different to the photo. This is very common and in no way it will affect the performance of the product.
