About the Masutani Kokuryu

The Nakiri is Japan's dedicated vegetable knife - a flat-edged blade designed for push cuts and pull cuts through produce without the rocking motion of a Western chef's knife. Masutani's Kokuryu line uses VG10 stainless steel ground to a laser-thin profile, delivering exceptional sharpness at an outstanding price point. The tall blade height gives excellent knuckle clearance, and the blue pakkawood handle is moisture-resistant and comfortable for extended prep sessions. Made in Echizen, Japan's historic blade-making region.
