The Nakiri knife is a Japanese kitchen knife with a wide, rectangular blade and a straight edge, ideal for precise cuts. It is particularly suitable for slicing and dicing vegetables as well as chopping herbs. Meat, poultry, and fish can also be processed effortlessly. The flat side of the blade is used for crushing ingredients like garlic, while the wide shape makes it easier to pick up and transport the cut ingredients. The blade is made of hardened special blade steel X50CrMoV15 and features an optimized precision grind with a sharpening angle of about 15° for maximum cutting performance. An integrated bolster provides good balance and protects the fingers during use. The ergonomically shaped handle made of durable gray Pakkawood allows for fatigue-free working and secure handling. The knife is suitable for both delicate cutting tasks and coarse chopping. The timeless design combines high-quality materials with high functionality. Gentle hand washing contributes to its long lifespan.
