The Samura Damascus Nakiri knife is a classical Japanese knife for handling vegetables and herbs. The traditionally wide, very thin and sharp blade resembling a hatchet will make it possible to easily and quickly chop up the salad or make filigree cuts from vegetables, without crushing or cracking the food. Crafted from 67-layer industrial Damascus steel, Samura bring their skill at combining the best components of Japanese knife steel with the finest design from European makers. This really is a high tech steel, with a Rockwell hardness of 61. The blade hardness of this Damascus series reaches up to 61 HRC. The handle is made of hard G-10 material. These two benefits alone contribute to the reliability and durability of this professional kitchen tool.
