Hatori Tsuchime 槌目 Series – Hammered Vegetable Knife 18 cm

This is a vegetable knife, or nakiri, shaped like a small cleaver. Its broad, straight blade chops cabbage, carrots, onions and squash in clean, straight-down cuts. The 18 cm (7.1 in) blade is layered steel with a fine textured surface, and it is uncoated. The pakkawood handle sits securely in the hand, and the knife is 36 cm (14.2 in) long and evenly weighted. It is from the Tsuchime 槌目 series: Tsuchime means hammer marks. Use it for salads, stir-fries, soups and all the vegetables you cut in a week. The wide blade also scoops the pieces off the board and into the pot. Free shipping and a 60-day money-back guarantee.
