Nakiri Knife | Made in Seki, Japan

Posted by Ramon Elzinga on

There is an ageing population of insanely skilled Japanese Knife makers in Seki. We love as a team to test knives made by the characters in the knife making centre of the world.

My wife is helping me eat more vegetables and less garbage so I decided to purchase a Na-Kiri Knife (Na = Vegetable, Kiri = Chopper) to perform my duties at home. It's made with a powdered Shirogami steel core clad with stainless steel. It's handle is made chestnut wood and a small burl.

I'm looking forward to seeing how this knife performs and how it holds up to acidity etc.
