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.

Best nakiri I have owned. Effortless push cuts and the food just falls off the blade.

Feels fantastic in the hand and the blade looks even better in person.

The SG2/R2 powder stainless steel takes a wicked edge. Fit and finish are excellent for the price.

Beautiful blade finish and the edge is incredible. Exactly what I hoped for.
