If you love cooking, you need knives that make cutting food easier and make working in the kitchen a real pleasure, just like this high-quality kitchen knife does. The Nakiri is used with a pressing cutting technique. It is traditionally used in Japan for peeling, slicing and chopping vegetables and herbs. The food to be cut can be picked up directly with the blade. The high-quality plastic handle impresses with its classic three-rivet design and enables fatigue-free work, even when cutting for long periods. The blade of this knife was sharpened with the Honbazuke trigger on a wet whetstone. In this traditional Japanese hand sharpening process, the blade is sharpened and polished in three steps, giving the blade the fine surface finish that Japanese knives are famous for. The FRIODUR blade has been ice-hardened, making it particularly sharp and very flexible at the same time. The knife was made in Seki, a traditional Japanese center of sword and knife making. It combines Japanese beauty and sharpness. The core steel is surrounded by 48 layers.
