KYOKU Samurai Series - Nakiri 7 Japanese Vegetable Knife

Inspired by the honor and integrity of Japan's master bladesmiths, Kyoku's mission is to make high-end Japanese cutlery affordable for professional chefs and home cooks worldwide. Kyoku's passion for culinary creativity keeps them on the cutting edge of handcrafted cutlery.

After the samurai declined in 1868, Japanese swordsmiths applied their skills to cutlery with unprecedented innovation. Kyoku was born from this rich heritage, aiming to bring the same level of craftsmanship to kitchens around the globe.

Kyoku's Nakiri vegetable knives feature a thin, wide blade that produces fine and even cuts. The hollow edge blade design provides less drag while cutting. These knives are cryogenically treated using the traditional 3-step Honbazuke method, giving them incredible hardness while retaining flexibility and corrosion resistance.

Following traditional sword-making practices, Kyoku creates wonderfully practical knives with unique, stunning, and functional textures. With various uses and incredible edge-retention, Kyoku knives are ideal for professional chefs and cooking enthusiasts alike.

The ruthlessly sharp edge of Kyoku knives is handcrafted by seasoned artisans to a mirror polish, painstakingly manufactured for incredible hardness, flexibility, and corrosion resistance. The dense Pakkawood handle provides an ergonomic grip and long-lasting service life, adorned with an elegant mosaic pin to reveal its luxurious identity.

Kyoku's full-tang construction, where the blade's metal extends through the handle, allows the knives to withstand punishing daily use without sacrificing their first-rate handling and performance.

Kyoku offers a range of knives in the Samurai Series, including a 7" Nakiri Vegetable Knife, 7" Vegetable Cleaver, 8" Chef Knife, 10.5" Sushi Sashimi Knife, and a 5" Non-Serrated Steak Knife Set. Each knife is crafted with superior Japanese steel and comes with a lifetime warranty, free exchange, or return if the item is defective.

Whether you're a professional chef or a passionate home cook, Kyoku's carefully crafted knives are designed to elevate your culinary experience. With their commitment to quality, innovation, and heritage, Kyoku is revolutionizing the world of kitchen cutlery.
