Chitose 7″ Nakiri Knife 菜切り包丁
The Chitose 7″ Nakiri Knife delivers the precision and balance of professional Japanese-style cutlery, designed to make vegetable preparation effortless and elegant. Its broad blade and fine edge transform everyday chopping into a smooth, controlled experience.
AUS10 Steel Core
Forged from premium AUS10 steel, the blade combines impressive hardness with excellent edge retention. Honed to a razor-sharp cutting angle, it glides through everything from tender herbs to dense root vegetables. The hammered finish across the upper blade reduces drag and prevents food from sticking, ensuring each cut is clean and efficient.
Olive Wood Handle
The handle is crafted from golden olive wood, prized for its warm color and naturally intricate grain. Smooth and beautifully contoured, it offers a comfortable, balanced grip that remains secure even during long prep sessions. Its octagonal design provides both control and elegance for chefs and home cooks alike.
Effortless Cutting Performance
Perfectly weighted and thoughtfully balanced, the Chitose Nakiri allows for clean, precise cuts and easy scooping of prepared ingredients. Its wide blade and razor-sharp edge make it ideal for all types of vegetable work, from fine chiffonades to hearty slices.
A Statement of Culinary Craftsmanship
Combining modern AUS10 performance with the timeless beauty of olive wood, the Chitose 7″ Nakiri Knife is more than a kitchen tool. It is a piece of functional art that elevates your cooking experience and brings both luxury and confidence to every meal.

It’s a decent knife but I’m not blown away. Sharpens up nicely and handles soft veg well enough, but for sixty quid I expected a bit more refinement. The handle feels quite plasticky to me and the weight is slightly heavier than I’d like for a nakiri. Not a bad knife by any means but my old Victorinox does nearly as good a job for half the money so I’m a bit unsure if I’d buy it again.

Honestly cant believe how good this is for the price. Used it every day for the last couple weeks making soups and stir fries, cuts through carrots and swede like theyre not even there. The flat edge gives you proper clean slices instead of that accordion thing my old knife used to do. Hammered finish actually works, food slides right off. Edge still feels razor sharp. If you do a lot of veg prep just get one.

Got this for my husband’s birthday and he’s been using it non stop. The blade is stupid sharp out the box and absolutely glides through veg – onions just fall apart. Hammered finish actually does stop things sticking which I was sceptical about. Massive step up from our old supermarket knife set. Came really well packaged too.

The handle shape took a bit of getting used to – it’s a bit slim for my hands. Blade is fantastic though, really thin and precise. Makes light work of a pile of mushrooms and the edge hasnt needed a touch up yet. Arrived next day which was a bonus.

Its a decent enough nakiri but honestly for £60 I thought it’d feel a bit more special. The blade is sharp out the box and chops through veg fine, but the balance feels a touch forward for me and the handle is just ok. Maybe I need to get used to the flat profile but I keep reaching for my old chef knife when doing bigger prep. Not bad, just not sure I’d buy it again.

Got this for my wife as she does all the veg prep for our Sunday roasts, she’s over the moon with it. I’ve used it a few times too and the blade just glides through carrots and potatoes like they’re not even there. The hammered finish actually does stop things sticking which I thought was a bit of a gimmick but it works. Feels well balanced, not too heavy at the front which my old nakiri was. Came in a nice box as well, proper presentation.

Its a decent knife, sharp enough out the box and it does make short work of cabbages and onions. But for sixty quid I thought the steel would hold an edge a bit longer, I’m finding I have to give it a few passes on the honing rod after a couple of big prep sessions. The handle is fine but nothing special, feels a bit light in the hand compared to what I’m used to. Does the job, just not blown away.

Bought this for the missus, she does all the veg prep. Its stupidly sharp, sliced through a butternut squash like butter. The blade shape is perfect for chopping, no rocking needed just straight up and down. Very happy with it.

Ok so I’ve been using this nakiri for about 3 weeks now mainly for veg prep at home. Massive upgrade from my old supermarket knife which was basically blunt after a month. The AUS10 steel holds an edge really well, still sharp as day one. The flat profile is spot on for push cuts through cabbage, peppers, courgettes. Hammered finish definitely helps with food release, potatoes don’t stick half as much. Came in a nice box as well which was a bonus.

got this nakiri as a birthday present for myself. honestly makes prepping veg the best part of cooking now. proper sharp out the box, went through a butternut squash like it was butter. the flat blade is spot on for chopping onions and herbs, no accordion bits left attached. hammered finish does seem to stop stuff sticking. only had it a couple weeks but edge is holding up nicely. came well packaged too. if you do a lot of veg this is a no brainer.

It’s decent but I’m not as blown away as I expected to be for £60. Edge is fine but my old Victorinox does nearly the same job honestly. The flat profile takes a bit of getting used to if you’ve only used western knives. Not a bad knife at all, just nothing special for the price point I think.

Really solid knife for the price. Sharp out the box and makes short work of veg prep. Only gripe is the handle is a bit slim for my hands, took a couple days to adjust. Would still recommend to anyone wanting a nakiri without spending silly money.

Got this for my husband’s birthday, he’s been on about getting a proper nakiri for ages. Honestly it’s brilliant, used it on a massive pile of onions and carrots and it just glides through. The hammered finish actually stops stuff sticking which I thought was a gimmick. Came in a lovely box as well, he was proper chuffed.

Bought this after my old nakiri finally gave up after years of use. The AUS10 steel keeps an edge really well, used it daily for a couple weeks and only needed a quick strop. It’s a bit heavier than I expected but actually helps with dense veg like celeriac. Came really well packaged too. My only gripe is the handle could do with being slightly longer for my big hands, but that’s subjective.

Sharp out the box, does a brilliant job on onions and peppers. Handle is a bit thin for my liking but that’s just a personal thing. Would recommend for the price.

Bought this for my wife’s birthday as she’s been eyeing nakiris for a while. She loves it, uses it for all her veg prep. Came in a nice box too. Only thing is I’m not allowed to use it now haha.

I’ve been using a cheap utility knife for veg for years and finally decided to get a proper nakiri. The AUS10 steel is no joke, I’ve sharpened it once since I got it a month ago and it’s still scary sharp. Bit heavier than I expected but the weight actually helps with chopping through squash and sweet potato. The hammered pattern looks lovely too. Delivery was quick, well packaged.

Got this nakiri after wanting one for ages. The flat blade makes chopping onions and carrots so much easier, honestly feels like it glides through. The hammered finish actually does stop stuff sticking which I was a bit sceptical about. Edge is still proper sharp after a few weeks of daily use. Proper upgrade from my old santoku.

Really good knife for the money, use it most days now for chopping veg. Flat profile means you can get right through an onion without leaving those annoying accordion bits at the end. Only minor thing is it’s slightly heavier than my old nakiri so my wrist noticed it after a big batch cook, but I’ve got used to it. Still would recommend.
