The nakiri is the Japanese vegetable knife: a flat, straight edge that meets the board along its whole length, so carrots, cabbage and scallions come apart cleanly instead of clinging together in a chain.

Why you'll love it

  • Clean, full cuts. The flat edge goes straight down and straight back up, no rocking, so thin slices separate cleanly.
  • Tall, square blade. Scoop what you've cut and carry it to the pan.
  • 73-layer Damascus, VG10 core. A hard core for a keen edge, wrapped in patterned layers.
  • Made for plant-heavy cooking. If you cook a lot of vegetables, this becomes the knife you reach for first.

What's in the box

  • 7" nakiri knife

Care: hand wash, dry right away, store on a block or magnetic strip. No dishwasher, no glass or stone cutting boards. Read the care guide.

Why more than a $30 knife?

  • The steel. 73-layer Damascus steel, VG10 core, as stated by the manufacturer. A hard core steel takes and holds a thin, fine edge.
  • Made to be sharpened, not replaced. A few minutes on a whetstone brings the edge back, again and again.
  • No risk to try it. Free US shipping, and 30 days to return it unused.
