Double-Edged Nakiri Vegetable & Cleaver Knife

A straight-edged knife designed for fast, clean vegetable chopping and slicing.

This collection brings together our double-edged nakiri and Chinese-style cleavers, the two great vegetable knives of East Asian kitchens. Both have tall, rectangular blades and flat edges that meet the board along their full length. They make quick, precise push cuts through onions, cabbage, squash and herbs, and the broad blade scoops prepped ingredients off the board.

Available in stainless, VG-10 Damascus, Ginsan, SLD and high-carbon White and Blue Steel.
