The Nakiri Damascus VG10 with Ebony Wood Handle is a traditional Japanese vegetable knife made for fast, precise prep. Its VG10 stainless-steel core offers dependable edge retention and corrosion resistance, while multi-layer Damascus cladding adds strength, stability, and a refined visual depth. Careful heat treatment and a finely finished edge give it a razor-sharp bite that stays consistent through long sessions. The balanced construction feels controlled and confident, clean on the board, smooth through dense produce, and effortless when you want accurate, repeatable cuts.

The nakiri’s straight edge and tall blade profile are built for efficient push-cutting, so the edge meets the board along its length for crisp, full-contact slices without wedging or tearing. A wide blade face guides knuckles safely and makes scooping chopped ingredients from board to pan natural. Because the geometry stays flat and stable, it’s ideal for uniform slicing, dicing, and fine vegetable prep.

Designed to hold its value, it pairs durability with comfort: the dense ebony handle adds a secure, weighted feel and a refined finish that stands up to moisture and daily handling. Meanwhile, the VG10 core sharpens cleanly and performs reliably day after day.

A Damascus Nakiri stays at its best when it’s kept clean, dry, and protected from abrasion, especially because the etched Damascus finish can be dulled by harsh detergents or scouring. Treat it as a precision tool: quick hand-wash, immediate dry, proper storage, and gentle contact surfaces will preserve both the VG10 edge and the Damascus pattern.

  • Hand wash only with mild soap; dry immediately, especially near the edge and choil
  • Store safely in a saya/blade guard or on a clean magnetic strip to prevent edge damage
  • Use the right board: wood or quality soft plastic to protect the VG10 edge
  • Care for the ebony handle: wipe dry after use; apply food-safe mineral oil occasionally
  • Avoid dishwasher, soaking, or leaving it wet 
  • Avoid abrasive pads/powders that can scratch/fade the Damascus pattern
  • Wipe after acids/salt (tomatoes, citrus, onions) to keep the finish crisp
