Made in Mainland China.

Key Features

• 67-Layer Damascus VG10 Steel Blade: The hand-hammered Damascus pattern is real — not laser-etched. The VG10 core is hardened to 60–62 HRC (Rockwell), giving you superior hardness and long-lasting sharpness far beyond ordinary stainless steel knives.
• 7-Inch Nakiri Profile (16.5 cm Blade): The wide, flat blade is perfectly suited for slicing, dicing, and chopping vegetables, fruits, and boneless meats with smooth, full-contact cuts — no rocking required.
• Full Tang Construction: The blade runs the entire length of the handle for maximum strength and balance. No risk of the blade separating from the handle — built to last through years of daily use.
• Ergonomic Wood Handle (13 cm): The contoured wood handle provides a natural, secure grip that distributes weight evenly and reduces hand fatigue during extended kitchen sessions. Comfortable for both left- and right-handed users.
• Extra-Wide Blade for Added Versatility: The broad blade doubles as a handy food transfer scoop — simply slide chopped ingredients directly from the cutting board to the pan.
• Precision-Forged & Certified: Certified CE/EU, CIQ, LFGB, and SGS. Eco-friendly materials with no high-concern chemicals.
• Thoughtful Gift Idea: Arrives in protective multi-layer packaging — a wonderful gift for anyone who loves to cook, whether for birthdays, holidays, housewarmings, or any special occasion.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What makes a Damascus VG10 Nakiri knife different from a regular kitchen knife?

A: A Damascus VG10 Nakiri knife features a high-carbon VG10 steel core wrapped in multiple layers of folded Damascus steel, resulting in a blade that is significantly harder (60–62 HRC) than standard stainless steel knives. This means the edge stays sharper for longer, requires less frequent honing, and the beautiful layered Damascus pattern is a genuine result of the forging process — not a surface laser treatment. The Nakiri shape, with its straight, wide blade, is specifically designed for precise, clean cuts through vegetables and produce.

Q: Is this Nakiri knife suitable for beginners as well as professional chefs?

A: Absolutely. The XITUO Nakiri knife's ergonomic wood handle and balanced full-tang construction make it easy to control for cooks at all skill levels. Beginners will appreciate the wide, flat blade that allows clean, guided cuts, while professional chefs will value the VG10 Damascus steel's superior sharpness and edge retention. It's a versatile, everyday kitchen workhorse.

Q: How should I care for and maintain this Damascus Nakiri knife?

A: To maintain the blade's sharpness and the beauty of the Damascus pattern, hand wash the knife with warm soapy water and dry it immediately after use — avoid the dishwasher, as harsh detergents and high heat can damage both the blade and the wood handle. Store it on a magnetic knife rack or in a knife block. Hone the blade periodically with a honing rod, and sharpen with a whetstone as needed to keep the edge razor-sharp.

Q: Is this knife safe for cutting meat as well as vegetables?

A: Yes. While the Nakiri style is optimized for vegetables and produce, the XITUO 7-inch Damascus Nakiri knife handles boneless meats, fish fillets, and herbs with ease. The 16.5 cm precision-forged blade and stain-resistant Damascus steel make it a multi-purpose kitchen tool. Note: it is not designed for heavy-duty tasks like breaking down bones or frozen foods.
