Tojiro Sakuya 6.5" Nakiri Knife

The Tojiro Nakiri Chef’s Knife blends refined Japanese craftsmanship with bold, modern aesthetics. Its VG10 Damascus stainless steel blade delivers excellent sharpness, edge retention, and corrosion resistance, while the striking black finish is achieved through an electrolytic oxidation process that enhances durability and gives the blade its deep, sleek appearance. This finish also helps reduce friction for smoother cutting. The knife is paired with a beautifully shaped octagonal ebony wood handle, offering superb balance, grip, and long-lasting stability. Designed for versatility and performance, the Sakuya Nakiri Knife is as functional as it is visually stunning—an ideal centerpiece for any kitchen.
