Place of Origin: Tosa, JapanTakohiki is a variant of the Yanagiba, and features a blunt, square tip and a straight spine that makes it easier to cut through tough and dense ingredients, such as octopus (called ‘Tako’ in Japanese, hence the name). Takohiki originates from the Kanto region, and is usually lighter, thinner, flatter and shorter in blade height than the Yanagiba. The blade is typically single bevel, and the length usually ranges from 210mm to 390mm.
