Nakiri is intended for processing root crops, and with its help vegetables turn into strips, cubes or julienne billets of uniform size and shape. With Nakiri, you can also process harder or hard-shelled root vegetables (e.g. carrots, pumpkins, etc.) well. Thanks to the wide but thin blade, the cut will be straight and even. Nakiri is sharpened on two sides, the sharpening angle is 15 degrees.

This 33-layer knife with hammered surface treatment and a Japanese wooden handle belongs to the "bestsellers" of Sakai Takayuki. The aesthetic appearance, the quality of the final finish and the utmost sharpness are impressive. The knife is convenient and effective in use. Sharpening and care do not require much effort, because the blade really keeps sharpness for a long time and is stainless. Spain mahogany wood has been used to make the handle, and the VG-10 steel core has reached a figure of 60-61 HRC on the Rockwell scale during heat treatment.
