This uncommon Nakiri size is great for those who want an inexpensive introduction to Japanese carbon steel.

It’s a very handy and practical blade in a smaller kitchen (and the great outdoors!) thanks to its compact size. If you want to experiment with wide bevel sharpening and polishing on whetstones, this makes for the perfect project knife to do so.

Nakiri is a versatile blade that excels in processing large amounts of vegetables and the rectangular shape is also useful for pick up all the chopped bits!
