Walnut Nakiri | Forged High Carbon Sawmill Steel & Walnut Wa Handle | Handmade in Canada

A vegetable knife built for precision, speed, and a lifetime of use. The Walnut Nakiri is forged from reclaimed high carbon sawmill steel — the same century-old prairie steel that runs through our entire knife lineup — and ground to the flat, thin profile that makes nakiri knives the go-to blade for vegetable prep. At 140mm x 50mm with a 2.3mm spine, it glides through produce with minimal resistance and maximum control. At just 132 grams this Nakiri is light enough for extended prep sessions without fatigue, yet substantial enough to feel purposeful in hand. The octagonal wa-style handle sits naturally in the hand, offering precise control and a traditional Japanese aesthetic that feels right at home in a modern kitchen. A handcrafted heirloom for the serious home cook or professional chef — built from prairie history, made to create new ones. For current production times, please visit our knife info page.

This steel is known for its edge retention and durability. However, unlike stainless steel these blades will naturally oxidize over time and gain a beautiful patina. Care must be taken to prevent corrosion or rust on the blade.
