This is the ultimate tool for vegetable lovers. The Nakiri is a traditional Japanese knife designed for one purpose: making vegetable prep effortless and precise. Its flat, straight blade is perfect for rapid, clean "push-cuts," giving you paper-thin slices and perfectly uniform dice every time.
Your Prep Shortcut
Forget the rocking motion of a chef knife. The Nakiri's flat edge makes full contact with the cutting board on every stroke, ensuring you cut all the way through herbs and leafy greens in a single pass. Plus, the wide, flat blade doubles as a handy bench scraper—simply use it to scoop your prepped ingredients and transfer them straight from the board to the pan.
Modern Performance, Timeless Design
At its heart is a high-performance 10Cr15CoMoV steel core, vacuum heat-treated to 60-62 HRC. This means it takes a screamingly sharp edge and holds it, even through mountains of prep. The core is wrapped in 67 layers of stunning Damascus steel for added durability. A signature hand-shaped burnt oak handle provides a balanced, comfortable grip, giving you complete control for even the finest julienne.
