Description

The Nakiri knife is a traditional Japanese tool primarily used for cutting vegetables. Characterized by a wide, rectangular blade with straight edges, this knife allows for precise and uniform cuts, ideal for vegetables such as carrots, cucumbers, zucchinis, and more. The shape of the blade enables easy downward cutting motion without needing a balancing movement like with other types of knives. This makes the Nakiri knife particularly suitable for preparing dishes that require a large quantity of sliced vegetables, such as salads, stir-fries, and vegetable-based dishes.

In the Kasumi Damascus line, the super durable VG-10 alloy is used as the blade's core material, ensuring exceptional hardness and corrosion resistance. The outer layers of stainless steel, forged into 32 layers, create the characteristic "Kasumi pattern," which not only adds a refined aesthetic touch but also enhances the overall robustness of the blade. This complex layered structure contributes to greater flexibility and durability of the knife.
The blades are meticulously finished, ensuring an extremely sharp edge that maintains its effectiveness over time. The black layered wood handle is designed to offer perfect balance and a comfortable grip, allowing for constant use without hand fatigue. In addition to being durable, it is treated to resist moisture and external elements, preserving its integrity and beauty over time.
This combination of materials makes the Damascus line an excellent choice for professional chefs and enthusiasts seeking high-quality tools. Each knife in the line is not just a kitchen utensil but a functional design object, capable of enhancing the culinary experience with its precision, durability, and elegance.
