Decorative Knife - Aogami Steel - Rengas Wood - 150mm - Handmade - 62 HRC

Haruyuki Nakiri vegetable knife with premium Aogami Super steel

This 165 mm Nakiri vegetable knife from the Haruyuki Shiso series combines Japanese craftsmanship with modern technology. The blade is made from Aogami Super steel with a hardness of 63-64 HRC, encased in stainless steel and featuring a distinctive black kurouchi finish. The ergonomic wa handle made of ash wood ensures a stable grip during use.

Perfect for precise and efficient handling of all types of vegetables, the flat blade delivers perfectly sliced results without the "accordion effect."

Exceptional sharpness and durability

The Aogami Super steel at the core of the knife is considered among the best knife steels in the world. It can be honed to an extremely sharp edge and retains its sharpness for a long time, even with intensive use. The stainless steel casing protects the core steel, so only the edge requires drying after use. This construction gives you the best of both worlds: exceptional sharpness with minimal maintenance.

Traditional design meets modern precision

The Nakiri knife's flat blade is designed for the characteristic push/pull technique, where the entire blade makes contact with the cutting board at once. This ensures perfect, clean cuts in vegetables every time. The octagonal wa handle made of ash wood with a contrasting bolster not only provides a secure grip but also adds an elegant aesthetic, making it a piece of functional kitchen art.

Japanese quality craftsmanship

Although the blade is shaped with machine precision, the critical sharpening, polishing, and handle assembly are performed by skilled Japanese craftsmen in Tosa, Kochi. This ensures the authentic feel and finish that only handmade quality can deliver. Weighing only 170 grams, the knife is easy to maneuver, even during prolonged use.

With this Haruyuki Nakiri, you get:

• A specialized vegetable knife that cuts perfectly without leaving partially connected slices
• Premium Aogami Super steel (63-64 HRC) that retains its sharpness exceptionally well
• Traditional Japanese design with modern durability through the stainless steel casing

Frequently asked questions

How do I maintain my Haruyuki Nakiri knife?
Always hand wash the knife and dry it immediately after use. Avoid cutting hard items like bones or frozen ingredients, and use only wooden or plastic cutting boards. Treat the wooden handle with a little food oil as needed.

What is the advantage of a Nakiri knife compared to a regular chef's knife?
The flat blade of the Nakiri knife provides perfect contact with the cutting board along its entire length, ensuring complete cuts through vegetables without the "accordion effect," where slices remain partially connected. This makes it particularly effective for precise chopping and slicing.
