Steel Type Read

VG10 steel, a high-end Japanese stainless steel, is renowned for its superior edge retention and sharpness. Enriched with carbon and chromium, it offers excellent corrosion resistance. The addition of cobalt, molybdenum, and vanadium enhances its hardness and durability, making VG10 steel ideal for a great everyday workhorse knife steel.

Review

I really like the Nakiri. It's sharp and light but well balanced.
I like knofes with no point as you can use is confined areas or small beanch as you don't need to fuss over the point being dulled.
I love the design and handle and always have.
All I all a good, practical everyday knife.
Regards

Simon Clement.
