Collection: Nakiri

A nakiri is a Japanese kitchen knife used for cutting vegetables. It has a rectangular blade with a straight edge that runs to the tip of the knife. Compared to a traditional Western chef's knife, a nakiri has a thinner blade and a sharper cutting edge. The design allows the user to make precise cuts through vegetables to create fine julienne strips or cubes. Nakiri knives are typically very sharp and are particularly suitable for preparing vegetarian or vegan dishes where vegetables are often the main ingredient.
