Takeshi Saji - Nakiri Knife 170mm in corno di cervo - VG-10 a 32 strati - coltello cucina verdure
Takeshi Saji was born in 1948 in Takefu (Fukui prefecture), a city located roughly in the center of Japan and in the heart of an area for centuries devoted to the production of blades. His workshop is still there, built around the oven thanks to which, for several years now, Takeshi Saji has been forging steel (especially damascus) with which he makes various models of traditional Japanese knives. The choice of materials for the finishes (mainly natural), the essential lines - evocative of use - and the chromatic combinations of rare impact make his creations unique and unmistakable in the panorama of world cutlery and, at home, they have earned him the prestigious title of Maestro.

Wusthof Germany - Classic - Nakiri Olivato 17cm - 1040132617 - kitchen knife
The Japanese vegetable knife: extremely versatile and suitable for cutting, chopping and mincing. Its shape resembles that of a cleaver, but be careful not to confuse it with it, as a Nakiri knife is not suitable for difficult tasks (such as splitting bones). The very pointed and finely sharpened blade is primarily designed for the very fast and precise preparation of vegetables, herbs and fruit. The alveolar blade of the knife (the alveoli are slight depressions on the blade that allow the formation of small air pockets) ensure that the ingredients do not stick to the knife.
Recommended use: Cut of vegetables - minced - beaten
Blade length: 17cmTHE CLASSIC SERIES
The Handles: made of synthetic material and joined with a triple riveting ensure a perfect seal, excellent stability and guarantee dishwasher safe.

The creation of a WUSTHOF forged knife requires the passage of about 40 processing cycles.Maintenance
Proper maintenance prolongs the life of the knife, makes work easier and safer and reduces the consumption of the wire. Some advices:
- Pay attention that the knives placed in the dishwasher collide with other objects; the blades could be damaged.
- Knives guaranteed for dishwashers that are not immediately washed in the machine should be rinsed under the water tap to remove the remains of highly corrosive foods (fats, vinegar, fruit juices).
