About This

• 【Japanese Nakiri Knife — The Vegetable Specialist】Nakiri means "vegetable cutter" in Japanese. Unlike a standard chef knife, the nakiri's flat cutting edge is purpose-built for full-contact push cuts through vegetables — no rocking, no crushing, just clean slices every time. Built with a hand-forged 3-layer composite blade featuring a 90Cr15MoV high carbon steel core hardened to 60 HRC, delivering exceptional sharpness, edge retention, and corrosion resistance for daily meal prep.
• 【Natural Olive Wood Octagonal Handle — A Cut Above Rosewood】Most nakiri knives at this price point use rosewood or pakkawood. Ink Plums uses genuine olivewood — a denser, rarer hardwood with rich golden grain patterns that make every handle visually unique. The octagonal shape gives you precise blade-angle control and a secure, non-slip grip through long vegetable prep sessions. No paint, no chemical coating — clean, natural, and food-safe by design.
• 【Flat Blade, Wide Body — Built for Vegetables】The nakiri's flat cutting edge makes full contact with the cutting board on every stroke, delivering cleaner, more consistent cuts than a curved chef knife blade. The wide blade doubles as a natural bench scraper — chop your vegetables, then use the flat of the blade to transfer them directly to the pan. Paper-thin cucumber slices, shredded cabbage, diced tomatoes, minced herbs — the 6.7-inch blade handles all of it with control and precision.
• 【Hand-Hammered Blade Surface — Cleaner Cuts, Less Sticking】The hand-hammered tsuchime finish creates micro air pockets between blade and food, so thin-sliced vegetables — tomatoes, cucumbers, leafy greens — release cleanly from the blade instead of clinging mid-cut. Each hammer mark is a natural result of traditional Japanese hand-forging, which refines the steel grain structure for a blade that's both sharper and more durable than machine-pressed alternatives.
