this santoku with its rosewood handle

single bevel mid size gyuto made by Yauji Yoshihiro under the watchful eye of master blacksmith Hideo Kitaoka

The usuba is a vegetable prep knife traditionally sharpened with a single bevel and this version is designed for primarily for right handed use although we generally find the profile is still close enough to double bevel that it can be used by left handers too

This smaller size strop is ideal for knives up to around 150mm in length
