Masutani Damascus Nakiri 165mm VG-10

The Masutani Nakiri 165 mm knife resembles a cleaver in appearance, but unlike it, it has a thin blade. This makes it perfect for cutting and chopping vegetables.

Masutani knives are made in the Fukui prefecture by a talented blacksmith from Echizen. An excellent quality-to-price ratio and the fact that they can be compared to other, more expensive knives are their main advantages. They have a core made of VG-10 high-carbon stainless steel. The outer layers are covered with Damascus steel (31 layers). This gives the blades an extremely spectacular look and makes them look beautiful in the kitchen. It is worth adding that during hardening, they gain a hardness of 61-62 HRC, which also means they maintain their sharpness for a long time. The wooden handle is moisture-resistant and also heat-resistant. It is made of pakkawood. Masutani knives are one of the best options for home cooks and people who are just starting their adventure with Japanese knives.
