DESCRIPTION
The nakiri's flat edge and squared tip make it one of the more vulnerable blades in a shared drawer. This wooden saya covers the full length of the edge, keeps the squared-off tip protected, and holds everything in place with internal magnets. No pin, no strap. Just on and off.
Shaped for a Flat-Profile Blade
Nakiri knives have a straighter edge than a santoku or chef knife, and this sheath accounts for that. XC01 fits nakiri blades in the 17-18 cm range, with a channel that follows the flat profile from heel to the square tip without lifting at either end. Ash wood won't warp or bind in a humid kitchen environment, and the blade seats cleanly every time. It's the kind of thing you'll stop noticing because it just works.

XC01 NAKIRI SHEATH
Keep the Edge Covered
A nakiri earns its edge on the stone. This wooden saya keeps it that way. The cover slides over the blade so the cutting edge never touches a drawer, a knife block, or another blade. Cut from solid wood, 21 cm long, and shaped for the flat profile of a nakiri.
Why magnetic
The edge never touches the wood
This saya — magnetic spine
- Internal magnet grips the blade
- Edge held clear of the timber
- Secure in a drawer or in transit
A friction-fit or bare blade
- Edge rests against wood or other tools
- Dulls and chips over time
- Slides loose in a bag

FAQs
Which knives does this sheath fit?
It is sized for Xinzuo nakiri knives — specifically the B1, B2, B32, B37, F5C, F5, X05Z, and X05B models. It is not a universal guard.
What is it made of?
Solid wood, shaped into a saya (a traditional Japanese-style blade cover) for the flat nakiri profile.
What size is it?
21 x 8 x 2 cm, and it weighs 81 g on its own. Boxed, the total weight is 111 g.
Will it fit a knife that is not on the list?
It is cut to the nakiri blade dimensions of the listed models, so fit on other knives is not guaranteed. Match it to one of the eight models above for a proper seat.
Does the sheath protect the edge?
Yes. The blade sits inside the wooden cover, keeping the cutting edge off drawers, blocks, and other knives during storage and transport.
How do I look after it?
Wipe it dry, keep it out of the dishwasher, and always dry the blade before sheathing it so moisture is not trapped inside.
Is it covered by warranty?
Yes — a lifetime warranty against manufacturing defects applies to Xinzuo accessories.
