Tokushu Knife Rosewood Series White #2 Kurouchi 165mm Japanese Nakiri Knife
We know you probably come to our website to explore brands you've heard about elsewhere that are well-established like Takeda, Nakagawa, TF, and so forth. Well, it's time we build a reputation for ourselves by offering our own brand of knives, Tokushu brand, made by Tadafusa.
Shirogami (white) steel is one of the sharpest and purest carbon steels you can own in a Japanese kitchen knife. Which is why we are using white #2 steel for the core of this Tokushu line, giving you an incredibly high-performance knife, with a little less reactivity than white #1 and minimal impact on sharpness. To pair this beauty up, we have a kurouchi finish to protect the blade above the shinogi. All our Tokushu line knives have our very own kanji stamped into the blade. So start filling your knife block with these well-priced knives and spread the word, Tokushu sells its own knives too!
A nakiri will quickly become your go-to vegetable prep knife. The flat surface along the length of the cutting edge helps prevent accordion cuts. At 165mm, this knife balances a useful cutting surface with easy handling for everyday vegetable preparation.

Steel, Construction and Care
Our catalog includes stainless, semi-stainless and carbon steels selected for edge performance and durability. Carbon steels may develop a patina, while stainless steels are designed to resist discoloration. Follow the care guidance on each product page, hand wash only and dry the knife promptly after use.
I am very happy with it, I used it to make fermented red onions and jalapeños. The nakiri was very quiet slicing through onto the cutting board. I think with my Zwilling knives you push harder and it bangs the board, it was so easy pushing through the red onions that it doesn’t bang on the board.
This was a birthday gift for my son who loves to cook. When he asked for this brand of knives, I know it wouldn't go by the waist side. The pictures don't do them justice! We will be coming back for the rest of the Rosewood collection. ~ Darlene
Fantastic knife, visually appealing and comes with a fantastic edge. Very impressed with the quality and will buy again from this brand.
The knife is sharp, fits nicely in my hand and is a real beauty. I love having a beautiful knife to look at as it glides through veggies. Nice price too.
This is my first Japanese knife and it is very nice, great price, and made cutting up some red onions and jalapenos very easy. Amazing how a sharp knife goes through stuff and you are not banging it on the cutting board. I am using this knife for cutting up veggies and then making fermenting vegetables, I will be making up some baseball sauerkraut next, cabbage, red onions, jalapenos, and paprika.
