Tojiro Shirogami Usuba knife with 18 cm blade. Core blade by Shirogami steel, outer layer by soft iron, it is easy to re-sharpen and has good edge retention. Single Bevel for Right-Handed. Handle is made from magnolia and has good water resistance. Weight of Tojiro Shirogami Usuba F-919 knife is 195g. The Usuba is ideal for cutting vegetables and fruits which are served raw, because the thin and sharp blade produces cut surfaces with very little cell damage, and this minimizes the discoloration and change in flavor often caused by oxidation. The relatively tall and long blade of the Usuba make it ideal for tackling large ingredients, such as cabbages, but it is not recommended for cutting vegetables or fruit with hard skins or hard stones, because they may damage the blade. Please, use your carbon knives carefully. It is not recommended for such knives - to wash in dishwasher, to leave it in water, to clean by acid liquids, to cut acid fruits like lemon. Hand-dry your knife: This should be done immediately after washing with a clean dishtowel. Rub with mineral oil. If you notice any rust spots, rub a light layer of mineral oil and let dry.
