The Nakiri knife is the go-to blade in Japanese kitchens for a reason. Its broad, flat blade makes it ideal for:

  • Fine slicing of cabbage, carrots, cucumbers, and leafy greens

  • Thin julienne strips of zucchini, daikon, or ginger
  • Clean chopping of herbs without bruising

Care Instructions

Hand wash with warm water and mild soap. Dry immediately and store in a knife block or on a magnetic strip. Avoid the dishwasher to preserve both the blade edge and the natural wood handle. Periodic honing with a ceramic or leather strop will keep your edge at peak performance.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What is a Nakiri knife and how is it different from a chef's knife?

A: A Nakiri knife is a Japanese-style vegetable knife with a straight, double-beveled blade designed specifically for chopping vegetables. Unlike a Western chef's knife, the Nakiri has a flat cutting edge — meaning the entire blade makes contact with the cutting board in a single stroke, resulting in cleaner, more uniform cuts without the rocking motion. It is especially effective for thin slicing and precise dicing of all types of vegetables.

Q: What makes AUS-10 Damascus steel special for kitchen knives?

A: AUS-10 is a premium Japanese stainless steel known for its high carbon content, which provides exceptional hardness and edge retention. When layered into a Damascus construction, the blade gains additional strength, a striking visual pattern, and reduced surface friction — meaning food is less likely to stick to the blade during cutting. It also offers excellent corrosion resistance, making it easier to maintain over time.

Q: Can I put this Nakiri knife in the dishwasher?

A: No, hand washing is strongly recommended. Dishwashers expose knives to high heat, harsh detergents, and vibration that can dull the blade edge and damage the natural maple wood handle. Simply rinse with warm soapy water, wipe dry immediately, and store safely to keep the knife in top condition.

Q: Is the maple wood handle comfortable for long cooking sessions?

A: Yes. The 14 cm maple wood handle is ergonomically shaped to provide a secure, comfortable grip. The natural wood texture reduces slipping and the balanced weight distribution between blade and handle minimises hand fatigue during extended vegetable preparation.
