Product Description

The usuba is a vegetable chopping knife. The blade is thin, which is required for chopping dense vegetables without breaking them. The blade is tall, keeping knuckles well above the cutting board.

This Edo-type usuba is great for cutting thin slices of vegetables. The blade is made of white carbon steel and the face of the blade has waves of mist showing the variance of the hard and soft steel. The handle is made of ebony.



Honyaki knives are true-forged knives, made with a single piece of high- carbon steel. The same method is used in creating Samurai swords. With attentive care, Honyaki knives stay super sharp. A single piece of high-carbon steel is very difficult to forge. Each blade is carefully heat-treated and water tempered by our skilled knife master. Sharpening is a challenge because of the hardness. Whetstone is recommended. However, the Honyaki has the longest lasting sharpness of all Japanese knives. Recommended for experienced and highly skilled chef.Mirror-Finished has stronger rust registance than regular Honyaki does.

Product Description

By definition, nami means wave and uchi means forge. Our namiuchi knives are forged with Blue Steel #1 with a beautiful wave pattern. The wave pattern makes it more challenging to combine the hard and soft iron together. Exceptional attention is given during the hammering process as it purifies the metal. Only highly experienced knife craftsmen can make these knives, therefore not many of these knives are made. The cutting edge of the namiuchi is superior than most knives made of Blue Steel #1. Recommended for professional chefs.
Whetstone is recommended for sharpening.
*Not Stain Resistant.

The usuba is a vegetable chopping knife. The blade is thin, which is required for chopping dense vegetables without breaking them. The blade is also tall, keeping knuckles well about the cutting board.

History- Since 1550, Yoshihiro, Masamune, and Yoshimitsu were known as the best sword craftsmen in Japan. After his death, Yoshihiro's apprentices continued to use his technique and traditional skills. The techniques used to make samurai swords are used to make Yoshihiro chef knives. Yoshihiro knives are now recognized to be one of the best chef knives in Japan due to the rich history and techniques that are applied from sword making to chef knives.
