Use the yanagiba knife primarily for slicing raw fish, sashimi, and other delicate ingredients. Hold the knife firmly and use smooth, single-direction strokes to achieve clean cuts. After each use, hand wash the blade gently with mild soap and water, then dry immediately to prevent rust. Avoid using the knife on hard surfaces such as bones or frozen foods to maintain the sharp edge.

To keep the knife in optimal condition, always hand wash with mild detergent and dry thoroughly after use. Avoid dishwasher cleaning as it can damage the blade and handle. Store the knife in a dry place, preferably in a knife sheath or block, to protect the blade. Regularly sharpen the blade using a whetstone to maintain its cutting performance and prevent rust or discoloration.
