Sakai Takayuki Homura Guren By Itsuo Doi Nakiri 180mm
Sakai Takayuki Homura Guren - Forged by Master blacksmith Itsuo Doi, the Guren series of knives made an immediate impact when the team at Knifewear got a hold of them due to the unique shapes and elegant kurouchi finish, not often seen from Blacksmiths in Sakai. Forged with Aogami No.2. and clad in softer iron, this series of knives have a heft to them, which means they'll make great workhorses in your kitchen.
About the Shape - A Nakiri is a vegetable knife. Under utilized in the Western kitchen, the Nakiriās flat blade is meant for the push/pull chopping of vegetables. Since the entire flat edge of the knife kisses the cutting board at once, you wont be turning the vegetable into an accordion. Accordion vegetables are still connected like a paper doll after you're ādoneā cutting them. To truly understand the awesomeness of a Nakiri we recommend making onion soup your first night with the knife. The ease of chopping will blow you away.
