7 Inch Nakiri Knife
Slice. Dice. Do It All—Beautifully.
We designed this knife for cooks who want the precise slicing of a Japanese-style cleaver, but without compromising the comfort and versatility of German-style blades. As home cooks ourselves, we were tired of knives that looked good on Instagram but failed under real pressure. So we built our modern Nakiri knife to stand up to the everyday—and still shine on special occasions.
Inspired by Japanese nakiri knives and reimagined with Western ergonomics, this 7” powerhouse knife brings together form and function in a design that feels natural in any kitchen. Whether you're chopping vegetables or breaking down herbs, the straight-edge blade delivers clean cuts without the need for rocking.
Crafted from imported German stainless steel and forged with a full tang, it’s tough enough for daily use but refined enough to stand out. The satin blade finish reduces friction for a smoother chop, and the continuous edge makes sharpening easier and longer-lasting. It’s everything a cleaver-style knife should be—just better looking, better feeling, and better made.
