Shogun NAKIRI OSAKA Japanese kitchen knife

The Shogun Nakiri M-138 is a true eye-catcher! With its elegant, traditionally Japanese mahogany handle and the unique hammered finish on the blade, it's hard to look away. The Nakiri is the traditional vegetable knife. With its wide blade, it is primarily used for chopping and slicing vegetables and herbs. However, it should not be used for cutting through bones and fish bones, as the extremely sharp edge is very delicate. It is hand-forged in a Japanese workshop using traditional manufacturing methods from high-purity knife steel of the highest quality. The cutting core made of V-Gold No. 1 is sandwiched between 26 layers of soft stainless steel. The blade is double-edged, rust-resistant, and features a beautiful hammered finish. The traditional handle made of high-quality rosewood is complemented by a black bolster made of laminated wood. It comes delivered in a colorful gift box.
