I’ve always loved blades like this with a hammered ‘tsuchime’ texture and a dark ‘kurouchi’ finish because they show the love that went into making the knife and just looks so badass. This particular blade is forged from SLD steel, which takes a crazy edge and holds it super well but isn’t high maintenance like some Japanese steels. Just wash by hand and wipe it dry to avoid rust!
Fujimoto knives sport a classic Japanese handle, called a ‘wa handle,’ that puts most of the knife’s weight in the blade. While it may seem a little unusual to some, this design allows the knife to do more of the work and is super comfortable once you get used to it.
Fujimoto blades are crafted by a team of expert craftspeople, and each step is hand-done by a specialist in their field to create a consistent, affordable, high-performance knife. The result is an incredible Japanese blade in a traditional style that is super reliable and doesn’t break the bank.
About the Shape - Under utilized in the western kitchen, the nakiri’s flatter blade is meant for the push/pull chopping of vegetables. Since the entire flat edge of the knife touches the cutting board at once, you won't be turning the vegetable into an 'accordion', still connected like a paper doll after you've cut them. The added weight of the blade allow it to fall through food more easily while you chop, so the knife does more of the work for you!

"I brought in about six of my knives for sharpening recently and, when I came into pick them up I asked Dave if he thought I had a gap in my collection and, if so, what would he recommend? Dave recommended the Nikiri which I bought as it was quite different from my other two Fujimoto knives. I am really glad to have it and I always enjoy my visits to Knifeworks. Great store and very welcoming knowledgeable staff!"
"Beautiful knife, wonderful for veggie, weighs a bit more so it feels like it has less resistance than my first fujimoto knife, the finish is quite nice and I’m hoping the blade will last."
"I’m slowly replacing all of my kitchen knives with these magnificent blades, the service provided by the crew at Knifeware is second to none they always spend the time to make sure the right blade is picked, never disappointed, amazing blades, amazing service,"

"Nothing bad to say about this knife. I buy extra veggies just to have a reason to use it. Top quality, wicked sharp and looks beautiful"
"This is a fantastic knife, and such good quality. The purchase of this knife was such a positive experience. The guy that helped me to decide spent a lot of time answering my questions and explaining pros and cons of each knife. No pressure, just great customer service. I came away with the perfect knife, and a wonderful gift. Thank you"
"Happy I bought this knife. Super sharp and makes cutting much easier and sun"
"Our recent purchase of the Fujimoto Hammer Tone SLD Nakiri knife has improved veggie prep more than I expected. The length (165mm) is the right length and the blunt end improves knife safety while working with small frequent cuts used in veggie prep. The sharpness of the knife is unbelievable. This is an excellent knife."
"Love this knife!"
"Absolutely love this knife! Great for veggies, great balance weight and usability. Will have for years to come!"
