Nigara STRIX Tsuchime Migaki Nakiri (vegetable knife) 180 mm -blade only-
Nigara STRIX Tsuchime Migaki Nakiri
At the heart of every STRIX knife is STRIX Powder Steel, one of the hardest stainless steels in the world. This steel can be sharpened to a razor-sharp edge and retains its sharpness exceptionally well thanks to a hardness of 65 HRC. The core is surrounded by 32 layers of softer stainless steel, forged with a unique finish. The subtle hammer marks (dimples) in these layers help prevent food from sticking while cutting, making kitchen work smoother and more enjoyable.
This blade is supplied without a handle, giving you the option to fit your own handle or select a beautiful handle from our exclusive collection—so you can create a truly unique knife.
The Nakiri is a Japanese vegetable knife made for fast, precise, and comfortable prep work. Thanks to its straight edge, you can effortlessly create clean slices and fine julienne, while the wide blade offers excellent control and makes it easy to scoop ingredients from the board to the pan in one motion. It’s ideal for working with vegetables, herbs, and fruit, and it feels light and agile in hand—so even larger prep sessions stay smooth and enjoyable. If you cook with fresh ingredients often, a Nakiri is a true upgrade in the kitchen.
