In terms of cutting performance, edge retention, some knife experts believe that HAP-40 is probably the best Japanese cutlery steel on the market.
A cutting edge of Hitachi HAP-40 Powdered High Speed Tool Steel that is welded forged with soft stainless steel for increased toughness and ease of re-sharpening.

Yanagiba knives are primarily used to slice boneless fish fillets for Sashimi and Sushi dishes, but they can also be used to fillet small to medium-sized fish and are often used for skinning fish. The narrow blade and relatively acute edge angle of the Yanagiba are features which greatly reduce the effort required to cut through ingredients. As with the Sujihiki, the long blade allows the fish to be cut in one single drawing motion, from heel to tip.
The combination of cutting technique, acute blade angle, and sharp edge result in very little cellular damage in the cut surface. This is particularly important for dishes where the fish is eaten raw, because it helps to preserve the original flavor and texture of the fish.
