Experience Effortless, Clean Cuts Through Every Vegetable

The Shun Classic Nakiri Knife 16.5cm is the traditional Japanese blade purpose-built for plant-based prep - where precision meets the rhythm of daily cooking.

The Specs

  • Steel: Proprietary VG-MAX cutting core, 32-layer Damascus stainless steel cladding
  • Edge: Hand-sharpened 16° double-bevel (32° inclusive)
  • Blade length: 16.5cm (6.5 in.)
  • Handle: D-shaped ebony PakkaWood®

Designed for the Way You Actually Cook

The Nakiri's straight, flat blade is engineered for the up-and-down chopping motion - making full contact with the board on every stroke for clean, precise cuts with no rocking or tearing. From paper-thin cucumber slices to chunky root vegetables, the Nakiri handles it all with quiet authority. The VG-MAX steel core is clad in 32 layers of Damascus stainless steel, bead-blasted to reveal its flowing wave-like pattern, while the ebony PakkaWood® D-shaped handle provides a secure, comfortable grip through even the longest prep sessions.

Care & Maintenance

  • Dry immediately after washing
  • Hone regularly with a Shun honing steel to maintain the 16° edge
  • Sharpen with a whetstone or professional sharpening service when needed
