This Yoshihiro JOUSAKU Kamagata Usuba is crafted from Yasuki White Steel #2 (Shirogami #2), a high-purity Japanese carbon steel widely used in professional kitchen knives. It is known for its exceptional sharpness and ease of sharpening, allowing precise edge refinement for traditional Japanese vegetable preparation.
White Steel #2 is highly valued for its fine grain structure and ability to achieve extremely sharp edges, making it ideal for chefs who require precision in delicate vegetable cutting.
The Kamagata Usuba (Western-style Usuba) features a distinctive curved tip design compared to the rectangular Edo-style Usuba. This shape is commonly used in western Japan and is favored for intricate decorative cutting, garnishing, and katsuramuki.
It is a right-handed single-bevel knife designed for professional use. The handle is made from Magnolia wood with a Buffalo horn bolster, providing durability and a stable, traditional Japanese balance.
Compared to Blue Steel, White Steel offers superior sharpness potential and easier sharpening, making it preferred by chefs who prioritize precision in vegetable preparation.
