Specifications
Handforged in Fukushima, Japan by Takahiro Nihei, a Yoshikane-trained blacksmith with a growing reputation among kitchen knife enthusiasts, this nakiri features Aogami Super carbon steel core with iron clad damascus and kurouchi damascus finish. Suitable for users who prefer a workhorse-style nakiri--a hefty blade with a comfortably thick spine and good distal taper that cuts exceptionally well. Ideal for processing vegetables with the tall 55.3mm blade height providing excellent knuckle clearance.

Why is the blade length different from the displayed size? The size in the product title is a nominal reference used by knife makers. The actual blade can be slightly longer or shorter due to handcrafting and traditional sizing. Each product page lists the exact measured length.
