Product Details
Forged and hammered with 16 layers of steel in the Damascus tradition with a VG-10 Core, the VG-10 Hammered Damascus Series has become a perennial best-seller, blending performance, beauty, and extraordinary value into every blade.
One of the most sought-after knives and fast becoming an essential companion to the popular chef's knife is the traditional Japanese vegetable knife known as the Nakiri. Reminiscent of a small cleaver, this knife is revered for its ability to chop through root vegetables and thinly slice delicate tomatoes. Whether you're prepping greens for a salad or chopping vegetables for a main dish, even the simplest tasks are elevated with a handcrafted knife that is as beautiful as it is functional.
This knife is complemented with a premium Western-style handcrafted mahogany handle that extends to the full tang of the knife. Certified for use in commercial kitchens, it is ergonomically designed to fit seamlessly in the hand for comfortable and precise cutting. The hammered texture of the blade reduces friction, preventing food from sticking and enhancing cutting efficiency. Each knife is handcrafted by master artisans, ensuring a unique one-of-a-kind work of art that delivers outstanding performance and lasting durability.
