Hidari Yorimitsu Nishigata Nakiri 165mm

Nakiri 菜切

The Nakiri, “leaf cutter”, is a double bevel, thin bladded knife designed for vegetable cutting. The flat grind of the blade makes for good chopping board contact so no more “accordion” vegetables. The Nishigata Nakiri is a western Japanese style of knife. This is not a bone cleaver.

This knife has a core of carbon steel and is clad with a carbon steel damascus. This knife will rust if it is not dried after use.
