About the Knife Shape Nakiri
A Nakiri knife is a classic Japanese-style knife that has a straight, symmetrical edge that is mostly used for slicing, dicing, and chopping vegetables. Its main feature is its straight blade, which encourages a specific style of cutting. Unlike a Santoku, which utilizes a rocking motion, the Nakiri is ideal for an up-and-down motion, perfect for vegetables. The Nakiri also has a thinner blade, so it should not be used for tougher cuts, like butchering meat or cutting through thick vegetables.
