Description

About the Shape - The Takobiki is a Kanto region (Tokyo) variation of the yanagiba, it translates to "octopus cutter", but isn't limited to just being used to prepare octopus, you'll find it will be adept at any task you might use a yanagiba for, such as preparing sashimi or slicing meat. It can be traditionally found with a square tip, but also it has become more popular recently to see it with the Sakimari tip and is always single-bevel for that extra level of sharpness.
