Why Choose the TOJIRO DP Nakiri 165mm?
The Nakiri is a traditional Japanese vegetable knife, designed specifically for cutting fruits and vegetables with efficiency and precision. Its tall blade provides excellent “chopping power” and stability when handling larger produce.
The flat edge profile makes it ideal for a chopping motion, ensuring clean, even cuts without rocking. This design makes the Nakiri a favorite among cooks who prepare vegetables frequently and want consistent, effortless results.
