The MAC Professional Series Japanese Vegetable Knife 17 cm (MJU-65) is a double-bevel Usuba designed for precision vegetable work. Its straight edge allows the full length of the blade to contact the board at once, making it ideal for fine slicing, chopping, and Japanese katsura-muki techniques that create thin sheets of vegetables like daikon and cucumber. While built for vegetables, this knife also handles meats and seafood with finesse, though it should not be used on bones, frozen foods, or other hard items.
