CIBI loves fresh seasonal vegetables and Otsuki Hamono Nakiri knife is designed specifically for vegetables. The horizontal profile of the cutting edge promotes an up / down cutting action and the thin profile of the blade enables you to cut thin slices to perfection.
Nakiri’s flat blade is meant for the push/pull chopping of vegetables. The added weight of the blade and the entire flat edge of the knife touching the cutting board at once allow it to fall through food more easily while you chop. So the knife does more of the work for you!
