Japanese vegetable knives

The shape of the blade differs according to the region of origin. It is either angular (the so-called Tokyo style), or has rounded tip (Osaka style). The blade is often made of stainless steel or Damascus steel, with the core layer protected by a tiny layer of nickel and silver. Polishing the surface helps to keep the blade from sticking to the cut food. The blade with such a construction offers the highest possible edge retention with the greatest possible flexibility. Although some knives have no stainless blades, they are very strong though. The blade of the vegetable knife Nakiri is ground and sharpened on both sides. You can cut with the whole length of the blade edge. The knives are not suitable for cutting meat and bones.
