The Sakai Takayuki Homura Guren (Aogami 2 steel) Japanese Chef's Nakiri Knife 180mm with Urushi Lacquered Oak Handle is a Japanese-style square-tip knife that is great for chopping meat, root vegetables and big prep jobs. Popular alternative to the Santoku. You can recognise a Nakiri by its rectangular blade. The tip of the knife is slightly rounded to make sure you can also quickly cut vegetables from an angle. This is, without a doubt, the knife you use to finely cut carrots, cucumber, cabbage and any other types of vegetables.
