What kind of knife is this?

The Japanese slicer. A more specific knife shape ideal for portioning, trimming and finely slicing large cuts of meat, roasts, poultry or fish. The long and thin shape greatly reduces drag and is ideal to make long drawing cuts to thinly slice protein with high precision. 

The Hitohira Futana series are a great introduction into the world of Japanese kitchen knives. They offer very high quality for a reasonable price.

The Futana S3 line is made with a Yasuki Silver #3 (Ginsan) stainless core-steel and a softer stainless cladding. Full stainless blades with great performance and easy maintenance. The S3 line is made with Nashiji (rustic) and with Migaki (polished) finish.

The Futana SB line is made up of a Yasuki Blue (Aogami) Super carbon steel core and a softer stainless cladding. Very pleasant in maintenance with only the core steel being sustainable to oxidisation. The Blue Super steel will hold a great edge for a long time. The SB line is made with either Migaki (polished), Kurouchi Nashiji (dark & rustic) and Kurouchi Tsuchime (dark & hammered) finish.
