KYOKU Nakiri Knife - 7 - Japanese VG10 Steel Core Damascus Blade

Discover the latest release from the renowned brand, Shogun Koi. Explore our online store to find high-end Japanese cutlery that is both affordable and expertly crafted for professional chefs and home cooks worldwide.

Following the decline of the samurai in 1868, Japanese swordsmiths turned their attention to cutlery, bringing unprecedented innovation to their craft. Inspired by the honor and integrity of these master bladesmiths, Kyoku is dedicated to staying at the forefront of handcrafted cutlery with a passion for culinary creativity.

Our Shogun Series offers top-notch Japanese steel, meticulously crafted with 67-layered stainless Damascus steel. The 7" Nakiri knife, from this collection, is the ultimate vegetable knife designed for slicing, chopping, and mincing with flawless precision. The herringbone pattern on the tang adds a touch of luxury to the craftsmanship.

Made of cryogenically-hardened VG-10 steel wrapped between Damascus steel folded 33 times, the Shogun Series stands out for its powerfully prestigious design and progressive potency. Each blade undergoes cryogenic treatment using the traditional Honbazuke method for exceptional hardness, flexibility, and corrosion resistance.

The hollow-edge design of these knives ensures that nothing sticks to the blade, while the time-honored sword making techniques result in a thinner, harder, and sharper blade compared to Western knives. The combination of ultramodern technology and ancient craftsmanship creates a scalpel-thin blade edge with a nonstick performance that enhances your cooking experience.

With features like a hammer-beaten wave pattern, mosaic-pin handle, and full-tang construction, each knife in the Shogun Series is a blend of beauty and functionality. Explore our range of knives, including the VG10 Paring Knife, Utility Chef Knife, Boning Knife, Vegetable Cleaver, Hammered Chef Knife, and Kiritsuke Knife, each meticulously designed for optimal performance.

Customer reviews rave about the quality and performance of our knives, with a rating of 4.6 to 4.7 out of 5 stars. Choose from a variety of blade lengths, handle materials, and additional features like a sheath and case to find the perfect knife for your culinary needs.

Experience the unrivaled performance and incredible edge retention of our VG10 Japanese Damascus steel knives, backed by a lifetime warranty for your peace of mind. Shop the Shogun Koi collection today and elevate your culinary skills to new heights.
