6.5 Inch Nakiri Knife, German Engineered, Tempered Stainless Steel

With over three decades of experience teaching cooking on national TV and radio, as well as in award-winning cookbooks and magazines, chef Christopher Kimball is a trusted friend of the real home cook. This expertise is at the heart of the Christopher Kimball Edition collection, which features expertly designed knives for everyday cooking.

The Nakiri Knife, included in this collection, is perfect for slicing, dicing, and chopping large fruits and vegetables. Its sharp, slender blade creates beautifully thin cuts and precise juliennes. Combining the wide, rectangular blade of a cleaver with the versatility of a chef's knife, this traditional Japanese vegetable cleaver is a must-have for any discerning chef.

Professional chefs worldwide rely on the tradition and quality of these impressive knives. Whether you're a seasoned chef or just starting out in the kitchen, we offer a variety of series and collections to choose from. These knives are stain- and chip-resistant, and maintain their sharpness for longer periods of time.

Crafted by skilled artisans, the laser-controlled edge of these knives is the sharpest available on the market. The bolster provides the perfect balance while also acting as a safe finger guard. Weighing less than 1 lb, these knives effortlessly slice through meat and bread alike, making them ideal for culinary artisans and home cooks alike.

Complete your knife collection by pairing the Nakiri Knife with one of our self-sharpening block sets, a steak knife set, kitchen scissors, or a single carving, paring, or butcher knife (sold separately.)

Our knives are made in Spain by skilled German craftsmen using an original, proprietary steel formula perfected over almost 300 years. The lasting quality of our products is unmatched, with precision-forged blades that are sturdy, well-balanced, and flexible.

With excellent edge retention and ZWILLING's ice-hardening technique, our FRIODUR blades are harder and sharper than those of our competitors. The ergonomic, polypropylene handle is seamlessly bonded to the blade, providing a comfortable and natural grip that is easy on the wrists.

For care instructions, our knives are dishwasher safe, but hand washing is recommended. Simply use warm water and soap, rinse, and pat dry. Store your knives in a knife block or paper sheath for safekeeping (not included.)
