Made in Seki, Japan, the Nakiri features a long, tall, rectangular blade that’s perfect for precisely chopping, slicing, and mincing fruit and vegetables. 

## Description

We chose to forge the Nakiri in Seki, Japan, a city renowned for 800 years of knife production. The double bevel-edged blade is made from 66 layers of Damascus steel with a VG-10 stainless core. It’s full tang, meaning it’s crafted from a single rod of stainless steel that extends from tip to handle. The result is a higher carbon content, creating a harder, sharper, perfectly balanced blade that keeps its edge shape for longer. Since the steel is compressed and folded together, you’ll notice an eye-catching wave pattern that’s unique to each knife.

With a comfortable, hand-finished polymer handle that’s both slip- and stain-resistant and a long, thin rectangular blade, the Nakiri is the knife you should reach for when you’re looking to efficiently chop, slice, or mince produce, from fruit salads and mirepoix to stir-fries and beyond.

### ★★★★★

### ★★★★★ Sharp knife at a fraction of the price

Great knife and very sharp out of the box. The value is great especially because good Japanese cutlery can be very pricey.

— Anthony G

### ★★★★★ Truly Outstanding Knife

Excellent balance and steel. Arrived out of the box with a great edge that I was able to make razor sharp with a few passes of my sharpener. This Nakiri punches way above its weight, I prefer it to my other knives which I paid a lot more $ for.

— James B
