Niwaki Nashi ‘Petty’ Paring Knife

Hand-forged by artisan makers in Sanjo, Niigata, Japan. A truly stunning knife for all-round use.

Western style walnut handle and irregular ‘Nashi’ stainless steel wrapped around a razor sharp Aogami #2 125mm Blue Carbon blade.

The irregularity shows the hand of the maker and helps prevent food from sticking to the blade.

Get one of these if you want the sharpest steel coupled with stainless protection, a nice familiar handle - and a great deal of style.
