Experience Perfect Precision with Every Cut

The Kazoku Kage Nakiri is the ideal knife for chefs who demand exceptional sharpness and performance. Crafted from premium Aogami #2 carbon steel, this blade offers remarkable sharpness that is easy to maintain. The core is protected by two layers of stainless steel, enhancing rust resistance and durability. With a beautifully sloping distal taper, the blade starts thick and gradually becomes thinner, offering both strength and precision for fine, delicate cuts every time.

This Nakiri knife features a wide, thin blade, designed for slicing, chopping, and dicing vegetables with ease. Its straight, symmetrical design ensures a smooth and efficient cutting experience, while the wide blade protects your fingers and makes transferring food effortless. The knife is complemented by a traditional Japanese magnolia handle with a horn bolster, offering a secure and comfortable grip designed for right-handed users.

Carbon Steel
Carbon steel knives require more care than stainless steel but sharpen more easily. They can rust without proper maintenance but develop a protective patina over time, adding unique character. Learn more on our page: All about carbon steel.
