Satake Satoru Tsuchime Nakiri Japanese Vegetable Knife - 16 cm - Precise Cutting

The Satake Satoru Tsuchime Nakiri is a high-quality Japanese kitchen knife designed specifically for the precise cutting of vegetables, fruits, and herbs. This 16 cm nakiri knife is an ideal choice for creating thin and even slices. The thin, rectangular blade and straight edge are perfect for vertical cuts, which are essential for julienne or chiffonade techniques. The ergonomic design of the Satake Satoru Tsuchime series makes it comfortable for even prolonged use.

The Tsuchime Hammered and Polished Surface

The special "tsuchime" (hammered) pattern on the knife's blade is not only aesthetic but also highly functional. These small depressions create air pockets between the knife and the food, which prevents slices from sticking to the blade. This makes cutting easier and more efficient. This surface is complemented by the polishing of the entire blade, which not only ensures a clean, elegant look but also provides maximum sharpness and a perfect cutting experience.

Tradition and Modern Technology

The nakiri (菜切), whose name literally means "vegetable cutter" in Japanese, dates back to the Edo period in the 17th century. The Satake Satoru Tsuchime Nakiri combines this traditional Japanese shape with modern materials. The blade is produced with machine precision, which guarantees reliable quality and precise fittings. To conclude the manufacturing process, each knife is manually inspected to meet strict quality requirements.
