Got this nakiri for my wife’s birthday as she does loads of veg prep for our meal preps. She absolutely loves it. The blade is stupid sharp out the box, made light work of a huge butternut squash and onions just fall apart. Handle feels solid and well balanced. Massive upgrade from the cheap set we had from Tesco. Came really well packaged as well, which was a nice touch.

Really nice knife, use it daily for all my vegetable chopping. Edge retention is brilliant, still sharp after three weeks of heavy use. Only slight thing is the handle took a bit of getting used to, it’s a bit chunkier than my old santoku. Now I’m used to it I actually prefer the grip. Would definitely recommend to anyone wanting a decent nakiri without breaking the bank.

So Ive had this nakiri for about 3 weeks now and honestly its become the knife I reach for every single time I’m doing veg. The blade is really broad and flat which makes chopping onions and peppers a doddle because you can scoop everything up with it. Edge came proper sharp out the box, like it glides through carrots without any force. I was a bit worried AUS10 would be tricky to sharpen but so far Ive only needed to strop it lightly and its still shaving sharp. The handle is really smooth and fits my hand well, not too heavy either. Came in a nice presentation box as well which was a little bonus.

bought this for my dad for his birthday as he loves cooking and his old knife was about 20 years old. He rang me up after using it on a load of potatoes and said it was the sharpest thing he’s ever used. He cant stop talking about how flat the blade is so nothing gets left half cut on the board. Bit lighter than my own nakiri but he prefers it that way. Delivery was quick too, no complaints at all.

Got this nakiri a few weeks back because I do a lot of stir fry and veg prep. It is properly sharp out the box, sliced a tomato so thin you could read through it. The flat blade takes a bit of getting used to if you’re coming from a normal chef knife but once you get the chopping motion down it’s a dream. Onions just fall apart, no tears either. Handles comfy, blade feels balanced. Used it daily for a month and its still sharp as anything. Massive upgrade from the rubbish Tesco knife I was using before. Well impressed for the price.

I bought this for my husband for his birthday and hes proper chuffed with it. Cuts veg beautifully, we’ve been eating way more stir fries since. The edge is seriously wicked, glides through butternut squash which usually kills my other knives. Only thing for me is the handle is a bit slim for my liking, I prefer a chunkier grip but my husband says its fine. Still a really good knife for the money.

Bought this for myself after years of using a cheap santoku. The flat blade is spot on for how I prep veg – just push down, no rocking needed. Made a stir fry the other night and it went through a whole cabbage and a pile of carrots without any effort. Came really well packed too. Handle feels solid. Very happy.

Ok so I got this for my dad’s birthday because he does all the cooking and his old knife was proper blunt. He’s been using it every day for about a month now and the edge is still scary sharp. I used it to chop some butternut squash and it went through like butter. The blade shape took him a couple days to get used to but now he loves it, says its brilliant for any veg. Its a bit wider than I expected but that actually helps scooping stuff off the board. Delivery was next day as well which was a nice touch.

Really chuffed with this knife. Used it every day for the past week on veg prep and it glides through carrots, spuds, onions like theyre not even there. The flat blade makes it dead easy to keep everything even when you’re batch cooking. Edge is still proper sharp after all that chopping which honestly surprised me a bit. Handle feels nice even with wet hands. Massive step up from my old supermarket knife.

Its an ok knife but for sixty quid I was expecting a bit more. Sharp enough and does the job but the blade feels a touch light and the handle gets a bit slippy when my hands are damp. Tried it on a butternut squash and it struggled compared to my old Wusthof. Not bad but I dont think I’d rush to buy another one.

Honestly cant believe how sharp this thing is out the box. Been using it for all my veg prep, onions just fall apart no tears, and it glides through butternut squash like its butter. The flat blade takes a bit of getting used to if you’ve only ever had a chef’s knife but once you do its brilliant. AUS10 holds an edge really well too, still razor sharp after a fortnight of daily use. Handle is comfy and it looks lovely on the magnetic rack. Massive upgrade from my old supermarket knife that’s for sure.

Lovely blade, cuts through carrots and potatoes with no effort. Edge is still going strong after a few weeks. Wish the handle was a touch thicker though, feels slightly off in my big hands but I’ve got used to it. Came in a nice presentation box as well which was a nice touch. Would recommend.

Had this nakiri about a month now, use it daily for veg prep at work. The AUS10 holds an edge really well, only touched it up once on a strop since it arrived. Blade profile is lovely for push cutting, not much of a rocking motion but that’s what a nakiri is for. It’s a bit heavier than my old Kiwi one, which I actually prefer for dense stuff like butternut squash. Only real gripe is the handle is a bit on the slim side for my big hands, would of liked a slightly chunkier grip. Still, for sixty quid its a proper workhorse, no regrets.

Been using this nakiri for about a month now and honestly its brilliant. I was using a cheap santoku before and the difference is night and day. The flat profile makes chopping onions and peppers so much quicker, no more accordion cuts. AUS10 steel holds an edge really well, still as sharp as the day I got it. Handle is comfy and it looks proper smart on the magnetic strip. Only thing is I wish I’d bought one sooner.

Got this for my wife’s birthday and she’s absolutely made up with it. The blade is ridiculously sharp, went through a butternut squash like it was butter. Handle feels lovely too, proper quality for the price.

Got this for my own birthday treat (sad I know). Really happy with it, the flat blade makes chopping onions and cabbage a doddle. Only small thing is I’d have preferred an 8 inch for when I’m doing big batches but this is still proper sharp out the box. Handle feels nice in the hand though, took a day to get used to the shape.

So i got this for myself after umming and aahing for ages. Cant believe how sharp it is out of the box. The AUS10 steel is no joke – already done a massive veg prep session and the edge hasnt dulled at all. The broad blade makes chopping so much quicker than my old chefs knife. Handle is a bit different (feels like resin? quite smooth) but its really comfortable once you get used to it. Honestly my new favourite kitchen tool.

bought this for my husband’s birthday and hes been using it nonstop. says its the best nakiri hes ever had. came really well packaged in a nice box, makes a great present. the blade is so thin and sharp, perfect for slicing veg delicate. highly reccomend.

Really lovely knife for the money. AUS10 steel holds an edge well and its cracking for chopping onions and herbs. Only thing is the handle took a bit of getting used to, it’s a touch more rounded than I’m used to. After a week it feels fine but would’ve preferred a flatter profile on the handle, thats just me though. Still recommend.
