Nakiri Knife 18 cm – Ultimate Precision for Vegetables
Precision in Every Cut
This Nakiri knife from Ryda Knives is made for those who want maximum control and precision in the kitchen. With an 18 cm blade crafted from 73 layers of San Mai Damascus steel and a core of cryogenically hardened ST650 powder steel at 63 HRC, you get a knife that delivers outstanding sharpness and durability. The fine sharpening angle of 2×15° enables ultra-thin slices with minimal resistance – perfect for vegetables, herbs, and precision work.
The Nakiri knife's flat profile makes it ideal for push-cuts, allowing you to work quickly and efficiently without unnecessarily lifting the blade. The wide 5 cm blade provides ample knuckle clearance and makes it easy to scoop ingredients off the chopping board. The result is a smooth and efficient workflow, where every cut feels natural and controlled.

At 190 grams, the knife has a weight that works in your favour. The extra heft delivers more force in each cut without sacrificing control. The knife is designed to create a natural rhythm in your work – perfect for everything from fine chopping to larger vegetable preparations.
The hand-shaped handle in figured olive wood adds both aesthetics and functionality. The wood's natural texture provides a warm and comfortable grip, while the ergonomic shape ensures stability even during extended use. The combination of balance, weight, and materials makes this Nakiri a reliable tool in any kitchen.
