Indeed very interested in a usuba. Kind of got the idea that 180mm is a good size to start, and kamagata is the more versatile type. But not sure. Would like to hear expert opinions.

can't wait to try Katsuramuki. On a cucumber tho.

Some of my friends are health freaks but love sushi. They wanted vegetable only type sushi. I told them I could try to Katsuramuki a cucumber then use the skin instead of nori and just double roll is to stick (or use an avo paste?). Julienne the rest and put some carrots and avo. will it work - who knows but I do love making a mess. Can't wait for the knives to come so I can try it.
