Usuba knives are traditional Japanese vegetable knives, known for their precision and versatility. These knives feature a straight edge and a single bevel, making them ideal for performing intricate cuts and preparing vegetables with exceptional accuracy.
Design and Purpose
Usuba knives are characterized by their:
- Blade Length: Typically ranging from 6.5 to 10 inches.
- Blade Shape: A flat edge with a rectangular blade, designed for precise vegetable slicing and chopping.
- Single Bevel Edge: A unique feature that provides exceptional sharpness and control for detailed cuts.

This design makes the Usuba knife ideal for tasks such as peeling, slicing, and creating decorative garnishes with vegetables.
