About this item

The Japanese vegetable knife: extremely versatile and suitable for tasks such as cutting, dicing or chopping. Its shape is reminiscent of a cleaver but should not be confused with it as a Nakiri is not suitable for rough tasks (such as splitting bones). The very sharp and finely ground blade is more designed to prep vegetables, herbs and fruit very quickly and finely. The dimpled edge of the knife (slight depressions in the blade that allow small pockets of air to form) prevents ingredients from sticking. Dimensions: Handle Length: 4.3" Blade Length: 7" Blade Width: 1.9" Details: Wash by hand and immediately towel-dry. Avoid using abrasive sponges or leaving your knife
