Our newest additions to the Kazan collection are forged in Tosa, Japan out of SRS-13 steel. SRS-13 is a stainless hard powdered steel which holds an edge for a long time. Powdered steels are known for their exceptional edge retention and easy maintenance. Each knife is fitted with a beautiful octagonal oak handle and hand-sharpened. Kazan is made exclusively for Chubo.

Why we love it: Awesome performance, easy care and a great price point.

About this shape

Nakiri knives are the double edged Western style equivalent of a single-edged Japanese usuba knife. Thanks to their straight blade, nakiri are ideal for julienne, brunoise allumette an other precision knife cuts for vegetables. Also a great tool for cutting into very hard skinned produce like pumpkins and squash.

Blade length 165 mm (5.9")
Thickness at spine 1.9 mm
Thickness at tip 1.9 mm
Hardness (Rockwell scale) 62
Edge / Bevel Double (50/50)
Blade height heel to spine 51mm

  • Handwash in warm water and towel dry
  • Do not cut frozen foods
  • Use a sharpening stone, not a honing steel, to re-sharpen your Japanese chef knives
