Meet the KYOKU Nakiri Knife, a 7-inch blade built for vegetable prep with a refined Japanese-inspired shape. Part of the Shogun Series, this knife blends a striking Damascus pattern with modern steel technology, delivering a tool that looks as good as it performs. The blade’s compact length makes it nimble on standard cutting boards, ideal for quick prep work, and the included sheath keeps the knife protected between uses.

This pairing aims to balance sharpness, edge stability, and durability while creating a unique, wavy pattern that catches the eye. The result is a blade that can handle wide leaf greens, cabbage, herbs, and more with clean, consistent slices, without requiring a heavy downstroke.

Care and usage considerations are straightforward. Hand washing and thorough drying help preserve the blade’s finish and the distinctive Damascus pattern.
