The **Kai Shun Pro Sho usuba** is a Japanese vegetable knife. It is very similar to a nakiri, but the usuba is sharpened on one side. The usuba is a traditional Japanese knife from the Kanto region. This knife is specifically designed for cutting vegetables. With its thin, straight blade and single-sided sharpening, it is ideal for making precise cuts without damaging vegetables. In Japanese cuisine, the usuba is mainly used in professional settings where food presentation plays a major role.

## Kai Shun Pro Sho blade

The blade finish and grind are characteristic features of these knives. One side features a decorative pattern, made with an innovative etching technique. The blades are made of AUS10A steel, a stainless Japanese steel with a hardness of 61 HRC. The blades are ground on one side at a 45-degree angle. The other side is flat and slightly hollow, creating an 'air bubble' during use. This reduces frictional resistance for a perfectly straight cutting result. Perfect when making sushi!

## Kai Shun Pro Sho handle

The handles are made from black pakka wood and share many similarities with Kai's well-known Shun Classic series. The handles are made in typical traditional, Japanese D-shape. This asymmetric D-shape ensures that the handle feels great in hand. The dark pakka wood contrasts nicely with the polished blade and end of the handle.

General information

We always measure the blade height at the highest part of the blade.

Blade height

We always measure the blade length ourselves. This is the length of the blade from the tip to the front of the handle. This may deviate from the manufacturer's specification.

Blade length

We always measure the blade thickness at the thickest part of the blade. Often just before the handle. This may deviate from the manufacturer's specification.

Blade thickness

value_handle_length

Measured from the tip of the blade to the back of the handle

Total length

We always weigh a product as bare as possible. Knives and axes always without their sheath, lights (if possible) without their battery. For knife sets we measure the entire weight. This may deviate from the manufacturer's specifications.

Weight

Dimensions & weight

value_steel_hardness

The hardness in Rockwell C for a knife is always according to the manufacturer's specifications. When a manufacturer specifies a value of 56-58HRC, for instance, we always note the highest value, i.e. 58HRC.

This concerns the type of edge [Want to learn more about a serrated versus a plain edge](/)?

Type of edge

We measure the sharpening angle ourselves. This value is the angle per side.  So 20º means that the total angle of the edge is 40º. Please note that knives are almost always sharpened by hand, even in factories. This value is therefore only an indication of a single tool measured by us. You are always free to choose your own sharpening angle. [Learn more about sharpening angles](/en/ct/sharpening-angles-explained.htm).

Sharpening angle

In terms of grind we are talking about how the complete blade thickness extends into the edge. Want to learn more about grinds? [Read all about grinds on knives](/en/ct/knife-grinds.htm).

Way of sharpening

value_total_sharpening_angle

This is the total sharpening angle, so the sharpening angles of both sides of the blade combined. For a knife with a one-sided grind this equals a single sharpening angle.

For the number of knives in the knife sets we stick to the information supplied by the manufacturer. Some brands consider the block to be part of the set, others don't.
