Shogun NAKIRI YOKOHAMA Japanese kitchen knife

The Nakiri is the traditional vegetable knife. This knife with a wide blade 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 cutting edge is very sensitive. The Shogun Nakiri M-139, featuring a noble, natural mahogany handle and an individual hammered finish on the blade, is a knife you’ll want to hold onto. 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 6 layers of soft stainless steel. The blade is double-edged, rust-resistant, and has a very beautiful finish. The elegant handle is made from fine mahogany wood and features a steel bolster. It comes packaged in a colorful gift box.
