Usuba from NY


I just got a package. A carbon steel Usuba from a lady in NY. Not sure what the maker is. Seems not high end but it took a decent edge on a few stones and I can get some katsuramuki practice. Plus I gave my sister my Miyaba santoku so this will replace it. Kanji on the blade seems stamped and not engraved  and the handle and ferrule arent super flush so I assume its of lower quality. Probably going to be worth the 40 dollars or so I paid for it.










Im sure I will be obsessively practicing this on all types of shit.



Small radish.


Apple. 

Combine the two in oil and season for a nice garnish.
