The Nigara tsuchime kurouchi SG2 kiritsuke nakiri (or flat bunka) is a handcrafted Japanese knife forged by Nigara Hamono, primarily designed for precise vegetable preparation. This unique knife combines the rectangular blade shape of a nakiri, ideal for chopping, slicing, and mincing vegetables, with the angled tip of a kiritsuke, allowing for more delicate work. Crafted from SG2 stainless steel, it offers excellent edge retention and easy maintenance without the need to worry about rust. The blade showcases an attractive geometric tsuchime pattern, complemented by a kurouchi finish. While mainly focused on vegetable tasks, the kiritsuke tip adds versatility, making it suitable for use as a bunka-style knife for a wider range of kitchen duties.
