Customer Reviews of Bunmei 7-Inch Usuba Knife
Customer Rating:   Summary: Should be priced at $15 Comment: I'm a professional chef, and just picked up this knife. When i opened the box, i noticed there was almost no edge on it. I think the back of the knife was actually sharper. I do all my own sharpening but after a few swipes on the stones, i noticed the blade is not only bent, it has a "wave" to the edge. Making it impossible to sharpen. it's a useless knife without having it reforged. if you want good japanese steel, stick with shun, i've never had any problems out of them. the only thing good going for this knife, is it's actually a very nice mix of steel with just the right about of carbon so that it isn't too hard or too soft. To bad the manufacturing of it is horrible. Customer Rating: Summary: Great Slicer/Chopper Comment: I recently began working in a Sushi Bar, where I was required to invest in my own knives. I purchased this Bunmei Usuba Knife and have found it exceeded my expectations. The blade is constantly exposed to moisture from fish, vegetables, fruit, and cleaning, and is rust free. It's easy to care for, and holds a great edge. I use this usuba bocho for chopping all manner of things, from fish, veggies, etc, and I also use to to slice and dice. It cuts effortlessly through most things and the grip is comfortable. As a bonus it arrived with a mean factory edge! I didn't even have to pre-sharpen it. Highly recommended for the price (I paid $77.99). More Reviews From Bunmei comes this 7-in. Usuba Knife. BUNMEI 7-in. Usuba Knife 
Choosing Appliance -> Strainers We recommend 2 strainers for every kitchen. The first is a solid stainless steel colander (one big enough to wash a lot of lettuce at once). The second strainer is a fine mesh conical strainer (called a chinois) which is a must for any serious sauce or stock making. A chinois is an expensive purchase, but with care it will last many years. Choosing Appliance -> Hobs If you enjoy eastern cuisine, you can buy a speciality hob with a wok burner. Similarly if you are a BBQ fan, choose a BBQ grill. If you are left handed, go for front rather than right hand side controls as this eliminates the risk of reaching across the heat. If you cook for a large family, more than four rings may be useful, and if you have young children it may be worth considering paying a little extra for a hob guard or in the case of gas, choosing an automatic re-ignition or cut off device should the flame blow out.
