The Masutani Hamono VG10 Damascus Nakiri is one of the knives I often recommend to anyone looking for a lightweight, easy-to-use Japanese vegetable knife.
Handcrafted in Echizen, Fukui Prefecture—one of Japan’s most respected knife-making regions—this knife offers an outstanding balance of sharpness, ease of use, durability, and value.
Made with VG10 stainless steel, the blade provides excellent edge retention while remaining easy to maintain. It is highly stain-resistant and suitable for everyday use, making it a practical choice for busy home kitchens as well as professional environments.
One of the first things people notice about this knife is its beautiful Damascus finish. The flowing layered pattern gives the blade a unique appearance that many knife enthusiasts love. A beautiful knife makes cooking more enjoyable, and often inspires people to spend more time preparing food at home.
The 165mm Nakiri is a traditional Japanese knife designed specifically for vegetable preparation. Its wide, relatively flat blade is ideal for chopping, slicing, and push-cutting vegetables, from onions and cabbage to herbs and root vegetables. The tall blade also provides comfortable knuckle clearance and makes it easy to scoop prepared ingredients from the board.
The lightweight Western-style handle provides excellent balance and comfort, making the knife easy to control even for those who are new to Japanese knives.
Combining exceptional cutting performance, beautiful craftsmanship, and remarkable value, the Masutani VG10 Damascus Nakiri is a knife that I confidently recommend to both home cooks and professional chefs looking for a dedicated vegetable knife.
