The Zwilling Four Star 6.5-inch (170mm) Nakiri is a specialized instrument that integrates Western durability with traditional Japanese vegetable-prep geometry. Unlike the curved profile of a Western chef’s knife, the Nakiri features a signature flat edge and squared-off tip, specifically engineered for the vertical push-cuts required for high-volume vegetable processing. Each blade is forged from a single piece of proprietary high-carbon stainless steel using the SIGMAFORGE® process, ensuring a stable, well-balanced tool with a robust bolster. The blade undergoes FRIODUR® ice-hardening to 57 Rockwell (HRC), a process that optimizes the molecular structure to achieve superior corrosion resistance and an edge that remains sharp through exhaustive prep sessions while remaining responsive to honing. The seamless, molded handle—the hallmark of the Four Star series—is designed without gaps or rivets, providing a clinical level of hygiene and a slip-resistant, ergonomic grip that accommodates a professional pinch grip for surgical accuracy in julienne, brunoise, and katsuramuki-style cutting.
