xMeet the Anshee 7-Inch Japanese Nakiri Cleaver
In busy kitchens, precision and reliability are priceless. The Anshee Nakiri cleaver blends traditional craftsmanship with modern steel to tackle a wide range of prep tasks with ease. The blade is forged from X50CrMoV15 high carbon stainless steel, delivering a sharp edge and robust performance that you can rely on for everyday cooking. A hammered texture on the blade creates micro air gaps that help reduce sticking when you work with sticky ingredients, promoting smoother cuts and cleaner results.
Weighing about 8.5 oz, the knife strikes a balanced feel that helps you maintain control from first slice to final mince. The Japanese style tapered handle narrows toward the blade, guiding your grip and reducing wrist fatigue during longer prep sessions. A copper mekugi pin reinforces the connection between blade and handle, adding stability while lending a touch of traditional craftsmanship to your kitchen tools.
