Raiden Handmade Japanese Nakiri Knife - Copper Damascus Steel, Exotic Rosewood Burl Composite Handle, Full Tang Fixed Blade Professional Japanese Chef Knife with Sheath, Pro Knife Sharpening & Personalization
Damascus Steel and Blade Detail
The Raiden blade is carefully handcrafted using layered Copper Damascus steel, creating a striking contrast between the Damascus pattern and distinctive copper layers. Through repeated layering, welding, and forging, each blade develops its own unique pattern, much like a fingerprint. No two Raiden knives are exactly alike.
Designed in the traditional Japanese Nakiri style, the broad blade and straight cutting edge make the Raiden particularly well suited for precise chopping, slicing, and preparing vegetables. The tall blade also provides excellent control and ample knuckle clearance during food preparation.
Scales & Handle
The elegant handle is crafted from exotic rosewood burl and resin composite. The natural figuring of the burl wood combines with the resin to create a distinctive pattern and appearance unique to each knife.
The handle is carefully finished and sealed to help protect the natural wood against moisture, cracking, and drying while providing a comfortable and secure grip for extended kitchen use.
