The nakiri knife is a style of blade traditionally designed to cut vegetables. Lacking a pointed tip, these cleavers are ground thin with a relatively parallel blade which helps to increase surface contact with the cutting board.
This nakiri has a squarish octagonal handle made from in house dyed and vacuum stabilized spalted tamarind wood.
This blade has been forged from 1084 high carbon steel which is a time honoured and reliable edged tool steel, valued for its relatively simple alloy and high hardenability.
This blade comes with a custom black leather sheath that has been saddle stitched for durability.
