These knives, made in Japan by Nikken Cutlery in Gifu, offer excellent value for money. Founded in November 1971, Nikken has built a strong reputation for practical everyday products that deliver reliable sharpness and clean cutting performance. The blade of this knife is made of semi-rustproof Japanese molybdenum-vanadium steel and features a durable Hinoki wood handle and a polypropylene bolster. These knives are produced for the Japanese market and are now available in Europe for the first time.
The nakiri is a double-edged Japanese vegetable knife designed for fast, precise, and comfortable cutting. The straight blade allows you to effortlessly cut clean slices and fine strips, while the wide blade gives you extra control and makes it easy to slide cut vegetables from the cutting board to the pan in a single motion. The knife is ideal for processing vegetables, herbs, and fruit, and feels light and maneuverable, allowing you to work comfortably even with larger quantities. For those who often cook with fresh ingredients, a nakiri is a real kitchen upgrade.
