Balanced quality and price

The Narihira series has been developed as Tojiro's economical line, offering you a knife with outstanding cutting properties at a very attractive price. The knives are processed in the East and undergo final quality checks in Japan, ensuring a great result. The steel is specially produced for the Narihira series with a hardness of 59 HRC, providing a good balance between sharpness and maintenance. The knife's single-layer steel construction makes it easier to maintain than more advanced knives.

Practical for daily use

One of the significant advantages of the Narihira Basis knife is that it is easier to sharpen on a regular honing steel compared to harder Japanese knives. This makes it particularly suitable for everyday use, where you can quickly refresh the edge. The light wooden handle offers a good grip and a classic aesthetic for your kitchen. The Santoku design with its 16.5 cm blade gives you the right size for most daily kitchen tasks.

Maintaining your knife

To keep your Narihira knife in the best condition, always wash it by hand after use and dry it thoroughly. Avoid the dishwasher, as it can damage both the edge and the handle. While the knife may not hold its sharpness as long as more expensive Tojiro models, it can easily be maintained with regular use of honing steel. If needed, the knife can be professionally sharpened to regain optimal sharpness.
