Chef's Knife 14 cm Narihira Basis Black

Narihira Basis Chef's Knife 14 cm – sharp precision for everyday use

This Narihira Basis chef's knife at 14 cm is an affordable Japanese knife that delivers outstanding cutting performance at an accessible price. The knife is made from Japanese hard steel with a hardness of 59 HRC and features a practical black ECO handle. With its compact blade length of 140 mm and a weight of 210 grams, it provides excellent control for precision cutting.

Ideal for finer kitchen work such as cutting vegetables, herbs, and smaller pieces of meat, where a larger knife would be impractical.

An affordable quality knife with excellent properties

The Narihira range is Tojiro's economy knife series, produced under licence. Although the knife is not quite as hard as Tojiro's other ranges, you get a tool with outstanding cutting performance at a very reasonable price. A major advantage of this knife is that it is easier to maintain with an ordinary honing steel compared to harder Japanese knives. This makes it ideal for both beginners and professionals who need a reliable tool for everyday use.

A practical size with good balance

At 14 cm, this chef's knife is particularly well suited to precision tasks where a larger knife would be too unwieldy. The weight of 210 grams provides a good balance between manoeuvrability and stability, allowing you to work precisely without tiring your hand. The black ECO handle sits comfortably in the hand and provides a secure grip, even with wet hands. The knife's single-layer steel makes it easier to maintain than multi-layer knives, which is an advantage in busy kitchens.

Maintenance and care

To preserve the knife's sharpness, wash it by hand immediately after use and dry it thoroughly. Avoid the dishwasher, as this damages both the edge and the handle. Regular maintenance with a honing steel will keep the knife sharp for longer. As the knife gradually loses its edge, it can easily be resharpened and restored.

The Narihira Basis chef's knife gives you: - Japanese quality steel with 59 HRC hardness for excellent sharpness - Practical 14 cm blade length for precise cutting tasks - Easy maintenance with an ordinary honing steel
