The Nakiri is designed around an extra-large, flat cutting edge that gives exceptional contact with the board, making clean, controlled downward cuts through vegetables feel effortless. Although traditionally a vegetable knife, one of my main aims is to make every blade as versatile as possible, and I personally use a Nakiri for a wide range of everyday kitchen tasks. The defined corner tip allows for accurate detail work, while a subtle curve through the final section of the edge gives the blade enough movement to roll naturally across the board when needed.

The multilayered clad construction allows for a very thin forged geometry without compromising in blade stiffness. Resulting a beautiful agile blade that it will never loose its shape. The cladding on each side of the blade consists of wrought iron , mild steel and high carbon steel totalling at 5 layers.

A little bit about the all new Apex Ultra Steel, it’s a high carbon, tungsten and vanadium steel. heat treated at 67HRC which is very high hardness. The addition of vanadium increases the wear resistance of the cutting edge by quite a bit in comparison with the super blue Japanese steel. It delivers one of the best edge retentions in the market of steels.
