Tokushu Knife Tsuchime SLD 165mm Nakiri - Walnut Wa Handle Handmade in Japan
Experience the best of traditional Japanese craftsmanship and modern performance with the Tokushu Knife Tsuchime SLD 165mm Nakiri. Forged from semi-stainless SLD steel, originally developed by Hitachi, this knife offers impressive edge retention similar to carbon steel but with easier maintenance. It’s the perfect choice for chefs and home cooks tackling tough ingredients, from potatoes to squash.
SLD Steel and Semi-Stainless Cladding
Engineered for resilience, SLD steel is both low-maintenance and durable, making it ideal for daily kitchen use. The semi-stainless cladding ensures you only need to give the blade a quick wipe before storing to keep it in prime condition, while the Tsuchime hammered finish enhances both aesthetics and food release capabilities.
For peak performance, consider adding our professional sharpening service to ensure your Nakiri is razor-sharp right out of the box.
High-Quality Walnut Wa Handle
Handcrafted in Sanjo, Japan, the octagonal Walnut Wa handle provides a comfortable grip and is finished with our exclusive Tokushu Knife Kanji, symbolizing authenticity and craftsmanship. The combination of dark walnut with a light wood stripe adds a unique touch, making this knife as visually striking as it is functional.
