Yes, this knife also works well for cutting sushi rolls. Be sure to clean thoroughly between cuts/rolls (with a rag).

Yanagi-ba-bōchō (柳刃包丁, lit. willow blade knife), Yanagi-ba or shortly Yanagi is a long and very thin knife used in the Japanese kitchen, belonging to the group of Sashimi hōchō (Japanese: 刺身包丁, Sashimi [raw fish] hōchō [knife]) to prepare sashimi, sushi, sliced raw fish and seafood. So yes you use this knife to cut sushi rolls.

Yes. I have to wipe it off with a wet washcloth after every couple of cuts but it's really sharp so it works well

You would need a thin sharp blade---and don't forget technique! If you have a favorite sushi place watch theblade used and ask if you will. They are friendly to customer question.

Yes, and is an excellent knife. Has a very hard VG 10 core with softer stainless cladding, hold an edge well and not hard to sharpen . I have several Japanese Chefs knives (Gyutou) and this is one of my favorites. As good or better than many costing much more (I know since most I own do) . A bargain knife .

I have not used this knife to cut thru a graham cracker crust. However I think it would do fine. I have used it to cut brownies and other foods like this.

I believe it is. I purchased this to replace the same knife and found no difference.

yes, but it has size limitations. I would not use it like a chef knife, but I tend to pick it up for specialized jobs.

Yeah but not the best knife for it look for a yanagi from yoshihiro make sure you get an 11 inch knife

I believe so. The handle seems symmetrical and western knives are sharpened on both edges. Sushi knives are ground flat on one side and angled on the other.

That's what I use it for. Sharp side for young Thai tops, dull side for cracking them, or brown coconuts. I bought a cleaver at BB&B;, and 2 coconuts in the blade cracked - this one seems MUCH more reliable.

I am sure you can. I have only used it for a cake, but the knife didn't harm the plate or knife at all.

yes it works great any time your using a knife , works well for cutting it up too.

I think so. My young chefs use this to coarsely cut tomatoes, cucumbers, apples, etc. (not possible with our butter knives.) The blade is not very long, but it is effective as a knife for young cooks and the handle is perfectly sized for a smaller hand. We have used this for months now, and it is still as sharp as when we got it, without actually sharpening the blade.

Yes, this is an awesome product for intended use.. I really use it more than any other knife to slice cheddar type cheese.

Haven personally use the knives to cut, but they are not the usual jagged knives type...from the feel of it...it look pretty sharp! (almost cut my fingers while admiring it), hope this helps!

I would not recommend it for that. I'm a sushi chef and I sharpen 8 to 12 inch knives on it. That is about the maximum size knife that you can comfortably sharpen on this stone.

Yes it is, but it is stiff when you get it. Just work it out as often as you can. It's a nice knife.

I've not had mine very long and have only used it once...and it does slice...the slicing looks like a slinky (spirally) ...lol
