Niwaki 'Youshiki Nakiri' kitchen knife

Made by Niwaki in Japan, this is a classic kitchen knife or 'chef's knife', suitable as an all-round slicing and chopping knife. With the traditional Japanese knife shape, ie without a pointed tip. Excellent balance and weight. A little different to some Japanese kitchen knives in that it's made from stainless rather than carbon steel. This makes it more durable and somewhat tougher, though we do not recommend using it for cutting up bones. Ideally it should be hand washed and dried, and sharpened when needed with a Niwaki combination stone with camellia oil. 180mm blade, 136g, hardwood laquered handles. (CS)
