The Nakiri knife is inspired by a classic Japanese vegetable knife. The knife is a perfect blend of the versatility of a chef’s knife and the blunt shape of a cleaver. The square shape of the knife makes it suitable for chopping and slicing tricky vegetables. The large stainless steel blade is sharp, strong and splinter resistant.

FAQ
Q:Is the knife dishwasher safe?
A:No. The handle is made of wood and should not be exposed to detergent and as little water as possible.
Q:Should I treat the wooden handle with oil?
A:The wood is treated with a protective finish that requires no maintenance and should be kept dry. Should the finish wear off over time, it is advisable to lightly wipe the wood with food-grade mineral oil.
Q: Can I store my No. 7 Nakiri knife outside for an extended period of time?
A: The No. 7 Nakiri knife is not intended to be stored outside for extended periods of time. Prolonged exposure to wet conditions can cause rust and unnecessary wear. We recommend storing your knife indoors after use to make it last as long as possible.
