Designed with a very thin blade the nakiri is used for effortless and precise cutting of vegetables. The tip is kept close to 90 degrees so delicate cuts can be achieved, the slight curve at the last 30mm allows the knife to still roll over the cutting board when needed and the strait edge blade offers excellent downward chopping.

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.
