3.2 Pembersihan Awal
Before first use, wash the knife thoroughly with warm water and a mild dish soap. Rinse completely and dry immediately with a soft cloth to prevent water spots and potential corrosion.
4. Arahan Operasi
The sashimi knife is designed for a specific cutting technique that maximizes the freshness and presentation of fish. Always use a stable cutting board.
4.1 Proper Grip
Hold the handle firmly but comfortably. Your thumb should rest on one side of the blade near the bolster, and your index finger on the opposite side, providing control and precision.
4.2 Slicing Technique (Hikibiki)
The primary technique for sashimi is "hikibiki" (pull-slicing). Place the heel of the blade on the fish closest to you. In one continuous, smooth motion, pull the knife towards you, using the full length of the blade. Do not push down or saw. This single, long stroke ensures a clean, smooth cut without tearing the delicate fish fibers.
