Global G-14R Yanagiba Knife 30 cm

Description

The 30 cm Global G-14R yanagiba represents maximum reach for master sushi chefs working with whole blocks of bluefin tuna, king salmon and large premium fish. This extended length allows complete hikizukuri cuts without interruption, preserving the silky texture that defines high-end sashimi. When large pieces demand traditional Japanese precision, this model responds without compromise.

Forged in Cromova 18 steel with 56-58 HRC hardness, it keeps the traditional 70/30 asymmetric edge for right-handed users that defines authentic yanagiba knives. The single bevel maximises sharpness, allowing pressure-free cuts that keep the fish cells intact. Its 240 g weight, strategically distributed, makes the fluid motion of the traditional Japanese cut easy. A KAI DM-0795 wooden board protects the ultra-fine edge through thousands of precise cuts.

Why choose the 30 cm Global G-14R yanagiba?

Sushi professionals value how the 30 cm let them process whole tuna blocks into perfect slices in a single stroke. First, the length removes the back-and-forth motion that would ruin the sashimi surface. Then, the extended reach allows working pieces that exceed the capacity of standard 25 cm yanagibas.

The single bevel maximises sharpness, allowing pressure-free cuts that keep the fish cells intact, while the balanced weight supports the fluid traditional Japanese cutting motion during professional preparations.

Discover how the G-14R extends the traditional capabilities of the Global G Series toward the most demanding Japanese techniques. In short, this 30 cm yanagiba proves that Global respects the ancient tradition of sashimi, offering tools for every scale of professional work.
