7" Nakiri Knife - Zhen Series (PM8O)

If you love salads, stir-frys, or soup prep, the Nakiri will quickly become your favorite tool. With its straight edge and flat, squared-off tip, this Japanese-style blade is designed for one thing: push-cutting vegetables without them clinging together like an accordion.

The Push-Cut Specialist

Unlike a curved chef knife that rocks, the Nakiri is designed to make full contact with the cutting board. This allows for clean, precise vertical chops through greens, carrots, and onions. The wide blade also acts as a scoop, so you can transfer prepped ingredients straight to the pan.

Premium Materials & Construction

• 67-Layer Damascus Steel: A core of high-performance 10Cr15CoMoV steel is clad in layers of Damascus for enhanced strength, flexibility, and a beautiful hand-forged pattern.
• Vacuum Heat Treatment: The blade is vacuum heat-treated and deep-freeze treated to achieve a 60-62 HRC, ensuring long-lasting sharpness and edge retention.
• Octagonal Handle: The traditional Japanese-style octagonal handle is crafted from olive wood and black buffalo horn, providing a comfortable and secure grip.
