Sakai Takayuki VG10 Nakiri 180mm (6.3″) 33 Layer Hammered Damascus, Japanese vegetable knife
This nakiri is a flat vegetable knife for clean, straight push cuts. The blade is a practical everyday length. Forged by Sakai Takayuki with a damascus finish, it pairs hard, keen Japanese steel with the thin grind and balance that let the blade glide through food with less resistance. The stainless steel keeps it easy to look after from day to day.

Care and everyday use
It is at its best for clean vegetable cuts. The stainless steel keeps maintenance low: hand wash and dry the blade after use, keep it off bone and frozen food, and touch up the edge on a whetstone when it starts to slow. There is no need to oil the blade, which makes it a forgiving choice for everyday cooking.

The VG10 stainless steel takes a wicked edge. Fit and finish are excellent for the price.
