San-Mai Nakiri / Olive Handle

This handcrafted Nakiri is forged in a san-mai construction with a C70 core and mild steel cladding. The C70 core is hardened to approximately 60–61 HRC, providing good edge stability while remaining easy to resharpen.

The blade has a solid, slightly heavier construction while maintaining a geometry suited for efficient cutting. Its wide, straight profile is designed for vegetables, chopping, and everyday kitchen preparation.

The blade features an etched and hand-sanded finish, exposing the contrast between the C70 core and the mild steel cladding.

The handle is made from olive wood and shaped for a simple and comfortable grip.
