The WusakiNawame AUS10 Damascus nakiri knife is designed for lovers of vegetables and Japanese cuisine. With its 16.5 cm blade, it’s ideal for thinly slicing, chopping, and precision-cutting fruits and vegetables. Its distinctive shape allows for clean cuts while maintaining excellent comfort for everyday use.
Made in Japan by Tsunehisa, this knife embodies rigorous artisanal craftsmanship. Each knife is the result of meticulous attention to detail in its finish. Its hammered and damascened appearance is sure to impress, and its technical design guarantees clean, long-lasting cuts.
The blade of this Wusaki Nawame Japanese nakiri knife features a Damascus structure consisting of a rigid core surrounded by several layers of more flexible stainless steel. This design achieves a good balance between cutting performance and durability.
Its core is forged from AUS-10 stainless steel, a Japanese alloy prized for its ability to maintain a long-lasting edge. With approximately 1.05% carbon in its composition, it achieves a hardness of about 60 HRC on the Rockwell scale. This ensures precise cutting and relatively easy maintenance for regular use in the kitchen.
The flat grind ensures effective penetration into food while offering a good balance between a fine cut and durability. The outer layers of stainless steel protect the core while providing additional balance to the blade.
The different steels that make up the damascene structure create unique patterns visible on each knife. Combined with the hammered finish, they give the blade an artisanal look full of character. This finish also helps prevent certain foods from sticking to the blade while cutting.
The handle is crafted from ebony, an exotic wood renowned for its density and durability. Its dark color complements the damascene pattern of the blade perfectly and adds a touch of timeless elegance to the entire knife.
The bolster is also made of ebony to maintain perfect visual harmony. Between the two elements, a red Corian spacer provides an original contrast that contributes to the identity of this nakiri knife.
Its octagonal shape offers a comfortable and natural grip. Suitable for both right- and left-handed users, this handle ensures good control during repeated cutting. Finally, wood putty is applied at the joint to reinforce the knife’s watertight seal and prevent the infiltration of food residue.
Wash your knife only by hand with a soft sponge and mild detergent. After each use, dry it immediately with a clean cloth before storing it in a dry place.
Do not put it in the dishwasher or leave it soaking in the sink for extended periods. To maintain optimal sharpness, sharpen it with a water stone when necessary.
