Sakin Damascus 10Cr Nakiri Knife 17cm

Precise cutting for vegetables

The Wusaki Sakin nakiri knife is designed to work vegetables with consistency. Its rectangular shape allows for clean, vertical cuts, with no rocking motion. The movement stays direct, precise and well controlled. Its 17cm blade offers good comfort on the board. It lets you slice, mince or trim with ease, while its height makes it easy to transfer food. With its Damascus blade and gold-flecked handle, it blends efficiency and style.

A tall, efficient blade

The 5.1cm blade height is ideal for vegetables. It allows clean vertical movements, perfect for fine slicing or julienne cuts. Its shape also offers good control while cutting. Its 10Cr15CoMoV stainless steel core, rich in carbon, ensures a clean, long-lasting cut. Its hardness of around 60 HRC guarantees good edge retention. The 67 layers of Damascus reinforce the blade and create beautiful wavy patterns. This structure also improves overall strength. The flat grind favors direct entry into food.

A comfortable, well-balanced handle

The resin handle blends carbon fiber and nuggets of gold leaf. The name Sakin means "gold dust", a nod to these luminous inclusions. Every handle therefore has a unique look. The resin resists moisture and stays pleasant in the hand. The carbon fibers reinforce the structure. The golden flakes bring an original, elegant finish. Its Western shape with bevelled base ensures a natural grip. Two stainless steel rivets and a brass mosaic rivet firmly secure the scales. The stainless steel bolster and base improve overall balance.

Give your knife the best care

Wusaki Sakin knives are made north of Canton, in China's Guangdong province. This region is recognized for its expertise in knives and various cutting tools. Manufacturing relies on controlled processes and carefully selected materials.

Wusaki's design follows French standards established for professionals. This rigor results in knives that are reliable, well finished and suited to regular use. Every model seeks the right balance between cutting performance, comfort and durability.

To keep your Wusaki kitchen knife in top condition, hand-wash it only, using a soft sponge and a neutral soap. Dry the blade carefully once you're done, to avoid any lingering moisture.

A real asset for cutting your vegetables

Use

• Cut with a straight, linear motion. Twisting motions damage the cutting edge and can break the blade.
• Use a wooden cutting board. Glass or marble dull the cutting edge over time.

Cleaning

• Wash by hand with a soft sponge and mild soap, then rinse with lukewarm water. Abrasive surfaces are not suitable for the steel.
• Oil the blade from time to time with a neutral mineral oil to protect it.

Sharpening

• Don't wait until the blade is completely dull: regular maintenance on a 1000-grit whetstone keeps an excellent cutting edge without removing too much material.
• Match the whetstone's grit to the condition of the blade — coarse grit to restore a very dull edge, fine grit to polish.
