Tsunehisa AUS10 Damascus Nakiri Purchase options

Designed to invoke visuals of swirling marble, the suminagashi finish on this nakiri are certainly a sight to behold but it's also a superb workhorse that is beautifully finished and well balanced for use in even the busiest kitchens.

Beauty

The suminagashi finish is a classic Japanese technique used to create the impression of marbling on paper, or in this case on steel and looks incredible. Each one is absolutely unique and there's much to enjoy just looking at the blade and the octagonal rosewood handle contrasts the blade beautifully. This is definitely one of the most visually striking knives we sell. 

Comfort

Light, well balanced and with a comfortable octagonal handle it's a joy to cook with this knife.

Durability

The AUS10 steel is a lot like VG10 but offers a little more impact resistance although we'd still obviously say to be careful with your cutting technique it's a good choice for those who want performance and easy sharpening.

Ease of care

Rinse and dry after use and ideally store your knife on a rack, in a saya or blade guard or even in the presentation box if you wish. Easy peasy!

Value for money

The AUS10 hits a great price point for those looking at their first Japanes knife or perhaps expanding a collection with one of these. They're certainly beautiful and easy on the eye but they also perform well straight out of the box and we'd have no hesitation in recommending them before they sell out.
