I’ll admit to being a bit in love with knives. Sounds creepy when said that way, but I am of course talking about the kitchen variety. I really have all I need, but I still had one knife crush unfulfilled…the nakiri. This little vegetable chopper is far from esstential, but I love the shape and feel of this knife. I finally succumbed and added this knife to my collection and I absolutley can’t stop using it! I chose the Shun Classic nakiri, a trusted brand with which I have never found fault, and it is a delightful tool. Delightful is exactly the word, because it is light, well balanced and, being a Japanese knife, exceptionally sharp. If you love knives like me, I suggest you add a nikiri to your collection soon!
