Poised and ready to make short work of all your veggies, the unique pattern of hammer finish isn't just for looks - it's to help the knife glide through the food and release as you cut and the classy burnt oak handle offsets the great looking blade with a traditional style.
This wa handle version of the nakiri is taller than the yo handled version for those who prefer a bit more clearance in their knives.
