## Description

Expertly hand-forged Japanese kitchen knife with high-carbon stainless steel blade, corrosion-resistant finish, and ergonomic rosewood handle for precision cutting.

Review: Excellent, get one, and you will never use any other of your knives - Really excellent, comfortable to use, wonderfully sharp out of the box, handles well, and once used it becomes the tool you reach for when preparing vegetables. This is heavier than the other nakiri knife I have, and also rather wider. It is part way to a traditional vegetable cleaver, but much easier to handle, and lighter. It came out of the box with a nice factory edge, ready for use, and passes the usual sharpness tests perfectly. The dimpling is presumably intended to reduce sticking of food when slicing. It helps to some extent, the slices seem to slide off more easily than on a completely smooth blade, but they do still stick. It looks and feels like a quality item, and when you use it you realize what a difference a real quality product makes. Finely chopping vegetables for instance is so much quicker and easier than even with a well sharpened good brand German chef's knife. The tip is squared off and not pointed, of course, but if this worries you, don't let it. As soon as you use this you realize that you don't need the traditional chef's knife point at all. It is unlike the other nakiri in having a sharp pointed corner at the tip. This turns out to be quite useful in fine cutting of celery or carrots, where the procedure is first to slice into julienne strips and then to chop finely. Get it, you will be glad you did. On sale its a bargain. At full price its an excellent buy too. This is a lifetime purchase, and one of your children will be using it for their lifetime too. Sharpening (as with all Asian kitchen knives) takes some care. Either get an Arkansas fine or extra fine oil stone, 8 x 2 inches, and be very careful to get the angle right, or get a pull through sharpener SPECIFICALLY MADE FOR ASIAN KNIVES. The angle of these is more acute than European ones, and using a European pull-through will ruin the edge.
Review: Good quality blade, however damaged (EDIT) - Overall the knife is good quality, sharp blade, sturdy and comfortable and looks really nice. Unfortunately however the tip of the knife I received was bent, severely over worked whilst sharpening by the looks of it. bought this knife for its ability to do delicate work and is now effectively useless to me. EDIT) After my review the company kindly sent me out a replacement knife within 4 days, this knife is all of the above with a straight blade. I’ve used it in the kitchen for multiple tasks and it’s flown through every task with absolute ease, highly recommend for its price.
