Tsutomu Kajiwara Sumi Nakiri, 

This sturdy Japanese vegetable knife has a core of Japanese Aogami #2 "Blue paper" non-stainless carbon steel with a very nice damask pattern. The blade is double-sided. This knife was completely hand-forged by master masters Tsutomu Kajiwara (1952) and is unique in its kind. The blade is very thin and manually sharpened and has no thickenings which makes sharpening very easy. A Nakiri is the Japanese version of a vegetable knife and is ideal for chipping vegetables. In addition, the knife is very suitable for mincing herbs.
