KAI Wasabi Black Nakiri Knife 16.5cm

If you are looking for a high-quality kitchen knife to cut vegetables, the KAI Wasabi Black Nakiri Knife is what you need! This Japanese knife is a knife specially designed for cutting all types of herbs and vegetables. All nakiri knives have a design that makes them look similar to cleavers, but be careful, because despite of its design, they are not meant to be used for chopping bones.

This knife has a blade made of Daido 1K6 high-carbon stainless steel blade. It was hardened at 58 degrees Rockwell, and, according to the Rockwell hardness scale, all items with values above 55 degrees are considered to have an exceptional hardness. This allows the knife to have higher endurance and greater durability. However, in order to maintain the blade under its best conditions, we highly recommend not to wash this knife in the dishwasher machine. 

The handle is made of polypropylene and bamboo powder. This last material provides the knife with hygienic properties, because the bamboo parts have natural anti-bacterial properties. In addition, the length of the handle is 12.7 centimeters, and it has an Oriental design that is suitable for both left and right-handed people.

The KAI Wasabi Black Nakiri Knife has an elegant look thanks to its black handle and its polished blade. In fact, these two characteristics are found in all kitchen knives from the KAI Wasabi Black series. These knives are all manufactured with the latest technology available while still keeping alive the Japanese tradition in the cutlery industry. This is why Wasabi Black kitchen knives are widely used by professional cooks all around the world.
