Description:
The Demko San Mai Nakiri Knife is a finely crafted Japanese-style vegetable knife that delivers clean, precise cuts with every slice. Designed with a wide VG10 stainless steel blade and a traditional nakiri profile, this knife excels at push-cutting through vegetables and herbs without rocking or tearing. The flat grind and tall 1.83" blade provide excellent food release and control during prep work.
The blade’s San Mai construction ensures a hard VG10 cutting core is protected by softer stainless steel cladding for durability and corrosion resistance. A smooth, ergonomic wood handle completes the look and feel, offering both comfort and traditional kitchen style. Weighing 5.60 oz. and measuring 12.63" overall, this is a high-performance tool built for chefs who appreciate Japanese craftsmanship and Demko precision.
