This Yoshihiro JOUSAKU Mukimono is crafted from Yasuki White Steel #2 (Shirogami #2), a high-purity Japanese carbon steel widely used in professional kitchen knives. It is known for its exceptional sharpness and ease of sharpening, allowing precise edge refinement for detailed vegetable preparation.

White Steel #2 is highly valued for its fine grain structure and ability to achieve extremely sharp edges, making it ideal for chefs who require precision in intricate cutting and decorative work.

The Mukimono is a traditional Japanese single-bevel vegetable knife closely related to the Usuba, but designed specifically for detailed decorative cutting and fine carving work. It features a thinner profile and a fine tip, allowing precise control for peeling, shaping, and intricate vegetable artistry. The spine is typically thinner than a standard Usuba, enhancing maneuverability.

It is a right-handed single-bevel knife designed for professional use. The handle is made from Magnolia wood with a Buffalo horn bolster, providing durability and a stable, traditional Japanese balance.

Compared to Blue Steel, White Steel offers superior sharpness potential and easier sharpening, making it preferred by chefs who prioritize precision and fine detail work.
