Description: Japanese Knife Chef ARITSUGU Fuguhiki Blue Steel 300 mm 11.81" Detailed Description You can slice fish and make sushi, sashimi easily. Your cooking will go through a dramatic change! This is the Betsuuchi Fuguhiki knife. It is made of blue steel. It is used to slice fugu (puffer fish) to make sashimi. Since fugu is supposed to be sliced extremely thin, Fuguhiki has a thinner blade than Yanagi and has a straighter edge as well. Customer review I have a big interest in Japanese culture. I like sushi, tempura, soba and manga(Japanese comics) but I also enjoy samurai and ninja. I was surprised to hear that the sword which the samurai used to carry still exists today. I managed to order a ARITSUGU knife and scabbard through a friend in Japan. When I held the sword in my hands, I was overwhelmed and felt I had become a samurai ! On top of it, I also purchased a sword stand. Once I placed the sword on the stand, I felt a samurai aura around it. I can't use this sword for cooking, but feel very pleased to have it on display.
