Okimoto Sanma 160mm Nakiri
Although it looks like a mini chopper this thin sharp blade is for slicing (mainly vegetables) with finesse. Every knife drawer needs at least one.
Okimoto Sanma Knives
- Subtle damascus pattern
- VG10 Stainless steel
- Pakkawood handle
- Non-perfect finish to keep the price down. Please see photos showing examples of imperfections such as non-flush construction.
- Silky sharp out of the box
These are budget production knives - not perfectly finished, but for the price they are fantastic cutters and much sharper than you'd expect for a knife in this price bracket.
If you are looking for a budget series with a smoother fit and finish we recommend the Kanetsune range or Okimoto Buri.
