Tsunehisa Nami Nakiri 16.5 cm AUS10

The Japanese Nakiri knife was created for cutting vegetables. It has a 165 mm blade and works perfectly both for home use and in restaurants. Its thin yet wide blade handles every type of vegetable.

Hand-forged knives from the Nami collection are made in Japan, in the Tosa region. They have blades made of Damascus steel (33-layer) with a core made of stainless AUS-10 steel, which is characterized by very good edge retention and high durability. Thanks to blade hardening, they achieve a hardness of about 61 +/- 1 HRC. The collection's name, Nami, means "wave," referring to the beautiful Damascus pattern. The blades are additionally finished with a high polish, which gives them their charm and unique character. The traditional Japanese handle has an octagonal shape. It is made from a single piece of Japanese oak.
