Thank you for viewing. This is a special-made (Bettaku) usuba (vegetable knife) from the Sakai Riki Oroshi Kyodo Kumiai. There was some rust when purchased, so I removed the rust and hand-sharpened it. The size and weight are just right, making it a perfect item for everyday use. I hope it will contribute to your own, your family's, and your customers' food safety, health, and happiness. ◆ Product Description ・ Manufacturer or Seller: Sakai Riki Oroshi Kyodo Kumiai (SAKAI) ・ Type: Usuba knife / Vegetable knife / Japanese knife / Knife ・ Material: Steel / Wooden handle / Bolster is metal. ・ Hand orientation: Right-handed / Single-edged ・ Size: Length 31.5 x Width 5 x Height 2 cm ・ Condition: Refurbished (used / junk) 　　　　Sharpened up to 15000 grit whetstone. 　　　　There are fine scratches and pitting (black spots) on the blade, but there are no problems with use. 　　　　* Please consider the scratches and rust as a unique characteristic of this knife and use it with affection. ・ Uses: Primarily a knife for cutting vegetables, but can also be used for meat and fish. 　　　　Can be used for home use, as well as for professional use. 　　　　Can also be used outdoors, such as camping and fishing. ・ Remarks: As you can see in the 8th photo, there is a slight dent in the bottom of the handle. ・ Accessories: Original, but it has deteriorated considerably.
