What is a Nakiri knife?
A Nakiri knife is a traditional Japanese-style blade that is most frequently used for slicing, dicing, and chopping vegetables. Its straight blade has a symmetrical edge, which promotes a particular cutting style. For celery stalks, carrots, onions, leeks, zucchini, and eggplant, the Nakiri is suited for an up-and-down motion, unlike a Chef Knife, which uses a rocking action.
What makes the Damascus Nakiri Knife special?
The Damascus Nakiri Knife has a magnificent, hand-forged blade made of Damascus that looks attractive, exceptionally strong, and long-lasting.

As a result, you won't need to sharpen your knife as frequently because it will stay sharp longer. Our Nakiri knife has the following features:-

Wash it right after use and dry it with a clean cloth to avoid rust.

Use knife maintenance oil on the clean blade to prevent rust.
After applying the oil, wipe the blade with a clean cloth.
Can the Damascus Nakiri Knife be used for both vegetables and meat?
Although this professional chef knife can be used for boneless meat and fish, its wide rectangular blade is especially well-suited for slicing and dicing vegetables.
Are there any safety precautions I should follow while using the Damascus Nakiri Knife?
When using a Damascus Nakiri knife, follow these basic guidelines:
• Hold the knife by its handle, not the blade.
• Keep your hands and fingers away from the blade's path.
