Shun Sora Hollow Ground Nakiri 6"

A nakiri is a Japanese-style vegetable knife. Once you get the Shun Sora Hollow Ground Nakiri in your hands, you will see why both professional chefs and good cooks around the world choose this beautiful and extremely useful tool whenever they have fruits or vegetables to prepare. With its straight blade, edge, and spine, the nakiri is used with a simple push cut. You will love the clean, swift work it makes of vegetables of all kinds. For daily salad preparation or slicing vegetables for stir-fry, it cannot be beat. Finely dicing onions is fast, easy, and with the Shun Sora Hollow Ground Nakiri's blunt end, safer, too. The hollow-ground indentations on the side of the blade create small air pockets that reduce friction when cutting, making it easier to glide through each cut.
