Miyabi 4000 FC 17cm Nakiri (33952-171-0)

Prepare to get your chop on with this Miyabi 4000 FC 17cm Nakiri. With a blade length of 170 mm and an octagonal handle made of impregnated, dimensionally-stable Pakka wood, this vegetable knife is the perfect size for many common kitchen tasks.

The blades are honed on both sides, with a masterful Katana-edge cut, and made from a single layer of FC61 steel.

This knife would make the perfect gift for someone who loves to cook - or even just a treat to yourself if your current knives are starting to look a bit worn and you'd like to get some professional quality knives that you know will last.

From cutting larger cuts of meat to ensuring that veg and even fruit is diced as finely as possible, this knife is one that's really going to be able to do it all and will last a lifetime when you take care of it properly.

To ensure the knife stays in the best shape possible, it should be sharpened regularly, and should be cleaned only with warm water and a light detergent before being left to fully dry in between each use.

It shouldn't be used in the dishwasher, submerged in water, or cleaned with a hard or rough sponge that could cause damage to the blade.
