This Kohetsu nakiri was created to make life easier for busy cooks. Made in Japan exclusively for Chefknivestogo, it was designed to be durable, affordable, and excellent at its job. It is made of Hitachi white #2 steel. Kohetsu loosely translates to "be happy" in Japanese, and we know this knife will live up to its name. It now comes with a walnut and pakkawood octagonal handle.

I've purchased a number of knives and CKTG and continue to enjoy all of them, including this one, which I purchased as an "introduction to the Nakiri" gift for a friend.
This knife was wicked sharp out of the box, and nicely balanced. Love the round end and overall finish. A great value!
