Yanagiba knives are known to easily slice boneless fish fillets for Sashimi and Sushi dishes, but they can also be used to fillet fish. When preparing sashimi and nigiri sushi, the goal is usually to have cut surfaces that are smooth, shiny, and even in order to maximize the taste; the narrow blade and relatively acute edge angle of the Yanagiba provides those elements.
