Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Wasabi by Kershaw 9.5-Inch Yanagiba Knife

Customer Review: Good mid-range Japanese-style knife
Summary: 4 Stars

I'd say this knife met my expectations, although contrary to the other reviews I read, I didn't find this knife substantially sharper than any other mid-priced knife I've purchased. I bought this as a sample to determine the differences between the Japanese style and German style knives to see which I preferred; the differences are about what one would expect: this knife cuts more at a diagonal due to the single-sided cutting edge, which must be compensated for. Still, it's a fine carving knife.

Pros:
Looks very nice, even compared to more expensive knives
Cuts as well as Henckels' International series, once the diagonal is adjusted for

Cons:
Matte blade surface is an interesting appearance, but makes it somewhat harder to clean
Handle is rather lightweight for a knife of this length

For an introductory Japanese knife, this one is decent, especially considering its low price when compared to the mid-grade German knives.
