@kragier I think it all depends on what you feel comfortable with and then LOTS of practice. I'm gradually improving with my nakiri (which BTW is a style of Usuba). Yanagi and Gyutos are not recommended by some due to the knifes having a slight curve compared to the usubas. The guy who is teaching me can literally do it with any knife, but he prefers his Suisin Inox.

@JasonECI Usuba is best. Yanagi and gyuto are also good.
Nakiri isn't as good from what I've heard.
I would hope to do this someday; when I can afford an usuba ;-;

A curved blade like yanagi works?
-
So THAT'S how it's done. Nice.

you know, people also stick bamboo into the knife to elevate it from the cutting board, and run a daikon through it. kind of like a cheese grater

another lefty!!! Whooohoooo!!!

No, he's using the Usuba-bocho, which is the correct knife to cut daikon.
What is he supposed to use?
nakiri? yanagi?

I'm pretty confident that (Kamagata) Usuba is the knife that is used normally. You can use Yanagi or Nakiri as well. Gyuto can work too. I find Usuba the best to control though.
