Niwaki Nashi Knife Range—an exquisite collection that seamlessly combines form and function. These knives feature stainless steel enveloping razor-sharp Aogami #2 Blue Carbon blades, adorned with a nashi finish that mimics the textured surface of a Japanese pear. The walnut handle, shaped in a Western style, provides a familiar grip with an exquisite Japanese balance.

The stainless nashi coating, intentionally irregular, imparts a distinctive appearance with some knives displaying pronounced pitting. Far from a flaw, this showcases the artisan's touch and serves the practical purpose of preventing food from adhering to the blade. Choose these Japanese kitchen knives for the perfect blend of cutting-edge sharpness, stainless protection, a comfortable handle, and a touch of sophistication.

Explore the Nashi Knife Range range with options tailored for various culinary needs:

  • Gyuto 180mm: A long, slender chef’s knife suitable for versatile culinary tasks.
  • Gyuto 210mm: A longer, slender chef’s knife offering enhanced versatility.
  • Nakiri 150mm: Tailored for precision in handling vegetables and meat.
  • Paring 90mm: Ideal for peeling, slicing, and other intricate carving needs.

Care Instructions

To get the best from your kitchen knives:

- Wash them by hand and dry thoroughly afterwards.
- Wipe over with Camellia Oil if not using regularly.
- Sharpen every two weeks or so of regular use.
- Use a combination of the Niwaki #1000 & #3000 Sharpening Stones for everyday sharpening.

Common mistakes to avoid:
- Leaving wooden handled knives to soak in water.
- Washing knives in the dishwasher.
- Not storing them carefully: store them individually, not jumbled up with other cutlery.
- Cutting into bone. If you’re not sure whether there’s bone, or you know there to be bone present, go very slowly and carefully, or consider using a different knife.
- Trying to cut frozen foods.
