Tosa Niyodogawa Nakiri, 165 mm

This Japanese vegetable knife has a core of non-rust resistant Japanese Aogami # 1 carbon steel with a protective layer (Sanmai) on the outside. This double-sided sharpened knife has a black (Kurochi) protective layer. This knife is completely forged by hand by the master smiths  from Tosa on the shores of the Niyodo river and is unique in its kind. The blade is very thin and sharpened manually and has no thickening which makes sharpening by hand on Japanese water stones very easy.

  • Steel type: core steel: Japanese Aogami # 1 steel "Blue paper steel" (non-stainless) with 2 layers of softer steel on the outside and black Kurochi protective layer.
