Vegetable knife
Nakiri (vegetable knife) with a 16 cm long blade
Steel: VG-10 with a hammered damascus steel cladding (60-61 HRC)
Ohishi manufactures very fine and well-made chef's knives. The knives have good weight and excellent balance. Additionally, they are very affordable and arrive razor-sharp.
The blade is made of the very popular and high-performance VG-10 steel. Around the core steel are 17 layers of softer steel, creating a beautiful Damascus pattern. The upper part of the blade has been hammer-finished and polished to a semi-glossy surface.
For the handle, mixed Pakkawood has been chosen, which gives a beautiful blend of brown and black. The handle is very well weighted and comes with 3 rivets, a bolster, and a full tang.
Best in test!
The testing company Wiseguide conducted a knife test published in Hus&Hem in December 2014. In this test, the Ohishi VG-10 was awarded "best in test" with the maximum rating of 5/5.
The justification reads:
Stands out due to hammered steel and patterned blade. Sharp, efficient, and low weight make it easy to use.
+ Well-balanced, holds its edge, low weight.
- Handle attachment can collect dirt and water.
