    It supposedly belongs to the category of Chinese chef's knives. In reality, it is somewhere between a Chinese vegetable cleaver and a Japanese nakiri. It is one of the best knives in this price range for vegetables, much better than even chef knives at the same price for this purpose, and the reason is the thickness of its blade at 1.4 millimeters.

    Better for vegetables than more expensive nakiri knives, even those made of steel and costing one and a half times the price. Excellent edge, relatively easy to sharpen with the appropriate stones, lightweight and balanced for a pinch grip. It is dangerous if you don't always use the correct technique and if you can't handle such light knives. You can't rely on the weight of the knife to compensate for your inadequate technique.

    Attention, it is not a cleaver for cutting bones with such a blade thickness, you will ruin it, and if you don't have the appropriate sharpening stones, it will be useless afterwards.

Questions

Description & Specifications

Nakiri Knife

The nakiri knife features a wide and straight blade, with a blunt tip. It is primarily used for cutting vegetables and thanks to its thin blade, it can cut even the most delicate vegetable. However, it is not suitable for harder materials, such as small fish or meat bones, or frozen foods as it may break.

Blade Material

The Shoso blade is made from 5CR15MoV stainless steel with a hardness of 56 (±1) HRC (a knife with a hardness above 56 HRC is considered good), which guarantees a high and uniform level of hardness as well as long-lasting cutting durability. Its curved sharpening gives the knives a stable edge, ideal for precise cuts. The matt finish highlights the knife's distinctive finesse.

The blade length is 16.5 cm.

Handle

The matte handle made from 18-8 stainless steel is particularly sturdy and guarantees a professional grip thanks to its symmetrical elliptical shape. The integrated diamond pattern offers a safe and comfortable grip during cutting. 

The length of the handle is 13 cm.

Cutting board

It is recommended to make cuts on wooden or plastic cutting surfaces. Glass, stone, and marble cutting surfaces are unsuitable, as they can cause permanent damage to the knife blades.

Cleaning

Wash the knife with warm water before using it for the first time. After each use, make sure to wash the knife without delay (with a simple detergent) and dry it with a soft cloth. Especially if you have cut acidic foods, you must wash the knife immediately after use.

For your safety, you should always wipe the knife away from your body and away from the edge, with a cloth or towel.

It is not recommended to wash it in the dishwasher but by hand, in order to protect its material and maintain its sharpness for a long time.

Sharpening

No matter how sharp a knife is initially, after some use it needs sharpening, which you can achieve with a sharpener, whetstone, or honing rod.

You can tell if your knife cuts well with an easy test using the knife and a piece of paper. A sharp knife can easily and cleanly cut a piece of paper. In contrast, a knife that needs sharpening will struggle and its cut will be jagged.

It is also recommended to occasionally have your knives sharpened by a professional to repair any potential damage to the blade edge and to maintain sharpness.
