The Funayuki is a traditional Japanese knife that is used by fisherman aboard their boats; Funayuki literally translates into English as "going on boat". These knives are often used by fishermen to clean, fillet, and quality test small or medium-sized fish. However, in the past, fishermen also used their Funayuki to prepare food for themselves at sea and in port, so the knife also had to be capable of cutting meat, vegetables, and fruit - just like the similarly versatile Gyuto.
