The Nakiri knife is a traditional Japanese tool primarily used for cutting vegetables. Characterized by a wide, rectangular blade with straight edges, this knife allows for precise and uniform cuts, ideal for vegetables such as carrots, cucumbers, zucchinis, and more. The shape of the blade enables easy downward cutting motion without needing a balancing movement like with other types of knives. This makes the Nakiri knife particularly suitable for preparing dishes that require a large quantity of sliced vegetables, such as salads, stir-fries, and vegetable-based dishes.
In recent years, kitchen knives from the Japanese artisanal tradition have been gaining more and more space in the kitchens of chefs and enthusiasts, sought after for their quality and sophistication, bearing witness to an age-old art that produces precise blades with great cutting capabilities. That's why Due Cigni has carefully designed the Japanese professional line.
