Nakiri & Usuba (Vegetable) Japanese Kitchen Knives

The Nakiri (double bevel) and the Usuba (single bevel) are knives designed for cutting vegetables. These knives have a flat profile which makes push cutting a breeze and with a taller blade height, you can comfortably guide the knives when cutting.
I can recommend these knives as my Nakiri is used for most jobs in the kitchen when I am cooking.

This 165mm Ginsan Nakiri is another beautiful Japanese kitchen knife from the Ohishi Ginsan series. When you take it out of its box it has a comfortably solid feel and a weight that is perfect for those heavier Vegetable prep jobs. With the balance of the knife just forward of the heel, it is perfect for the pinch grip when cutting.

I decided to trial the Nakiri by prepping some sweet potato chips, carrots, and cabbage and found that out of the box it handled the jobs with ease. The height of the blade and the weight made the work easy.

The Ohishi Ginsan Nakiri would make a great set with the Ginsan Petty and the Ginsan Gyuto.
