Shizu Hamono Shikisai Miyako Nakiri 170mm
About Shizu Shikisai Miyako- Shizu Hamono is a relatively “new” knife maker, established in 1959 in Seki by Masami Horibe, he grew up in Seki city, the city of blacksmiths, and naturally became a craftsman.
The Shikisai Miyako is an elegant choice for both chefs and home cooks. AUS-8 stainless steel is low maintenance, keeps a great edge, and is more rugged than most Japanese steels. The 33-layer damascus finish makes for a stunning piece, finished with a weighty, confident pakkawood handle. Perfection!
About the Shape - A Nakiri is a vegetable knife. Under utilized in the Western kitchen, the Nakiri’s 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 “done” 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.
