Miyabi Koh Nakiri Vegetable Knife - 6.5" (165mm)

Master the Art of the Blade: The Miyabi Koh 6.5" Nakiri

Experience the revolutionary fusion of German durability and Japanese precision—a handcrafted masterpiece engineered for the ultimate vegetable prep performance.

For the culinary enthusiast who demands more than just a sharp edge, the Miyabi Koh 6.5-inch (165mm) Nakiri represents the pinnacle of modern metallurgy and ancient tradition. While standard vegetable knives often force a compromise between the 'toughness' of Western steel and the 'retention' of Eastern alloys, the Miyabi Koh series utilizes advanced FC61 Fine Carbide stainless steel. This provides a staggering 61 Rockwell hardness, allowing for a scalpel-like 9.5-12° edge angle that doesn't just cut—it glides.

Hand-honed in the legendary city of Seki, Japan, each blade undergoes the proprietary FRIODURx2 ice-hardening process. This ensures your knife is not only resistant to corrosion but possesses the chip-resistance necessary for high-volume kitchen work. The aesthetic is as sharp as the edge, featuring a mirror-polished finish, a sandblasted katana edge, and the iconic embossed MIYABI logo.

The ergonomic octagonal Pakkawood handle is designed for the modern chef, supporting both the precision of Asian rocking cuts and the power of Western chopping. Accented with a silver mosaic pin, it offers a secure, comfortable grip that reduces fatigue during long prep sessions. Whether you are julienning delicate root vegetables or dicing dense squash, this Nakiri provides the stability of a Japanese cleaver with the finesse of a surgeon’s tool.
