  Don't buy if you need a meat cleaver (this is way too thin), are looking for a fancy knife (get something handmade or a Wusthof or a Mac or hell, a Shun), or are looking for a single-beveled Usuba knife (this is not that kind of knife)  I can't speak to the other kinds of knives Wasabi sells because I don't own them. But they're probably also..

 Will need to be sharpened if it's going to serve its primary purpose as a vegetable knife. Otherwise, perfectly fine. Will get the job done and given a good couple hundred strokes on a whetstone, will probably fly through onions and tomatoes and sweet potatoes.  Buy if you cut a whole lot of onions and whatnot and you don't need to rock chock herbs or do much of anything with meat and you also don't like spending money and you know how to sharpen and maintain a knife

This is definitely a knife (nakiri)

 She and a knife in hand is a scary proposition, versatile, sharp easy to clean great deal for the price [ Music ]. You 

I'Ve been searching for a perfect knife and i finally found one very nice knife feels great in the hand, perfect weight and super sharp. I had my wet stones and strap ready to sharpen this knife, since a lot of knifes are not sharp enough out of the box, but i quickly found out. I could put my sharpening tools away. This thing cut like a razor great price, great knife in happy great little knife

 It is easy to handle keeps an edge as well as any of my shunned knives and has become the go to knife in our kitchen. It also has reduced my blood pressure when my wife uses it. She and a knife in hand is a scary proposition, versatile, sharp easy to clean great deal for the price [ Music ]. You 

 I could put my sharpening tools away. This thing cut like a razor great price, great knife in happy great little knife. There is nothing to like the least balance is good, maintains its edge. Just a few passes on a leather strap ever so often, and it returns it to its original sharpness

KAI Wasabi Black Stainless Steel Nakiri Knife, 6.5 Inch review

 The Kai Wasabi Black series knifes are near the sharpness of their expensive counter parts, what separates them is the lack of VG 10 steel and plastic handles. The cutting edge and weight are really nice, although a bit toward the lighter side. For those new to having nice knifes, make sure you DON'T put these in the dishwasher. The solvents in dish washing fluid will rust these faster than salt water even for 1 wash

 For those new to having nice knifes, make sure you DON'T put these in the dishwasher. The solvents in dish washing fluid will rust these faster than salt water even for 1 wash. Always hand wash your knifes!  Stay sharp people :)

Pros: Sharp Free sharpening for life provided by Kai Wasabi (makers of Shun) Good value to price Really great for slicing large cuts meets into thin un-damaged slices  Cons: Plastic Handel No VG10 steel  Other thoughts: The cutting edge and weight are really nice, although a bit toward the lighter side.  If you are a fan of Shun knifes then your in luck, Kai Wasabi (the makers of Shun) have come out with this wonderful value brand of knifes. The Kai Wasabi Black series knifes are near the sharpness of their expensive counter parts, what separates them is the lack of VG 10 steel and plastic handles.

These are great value brand knifes  - Wasabi Black Santoku 6721Y

For a 6 inch knife, the blade is too heavy and way too thick, it’s original purpose notwithstanding. When cutting hard vegetable like carrots, the thick blade tends to break pieces off rather than cut smoothly. It is not a true single bevel knife. There is a small secondary bevel on the blade

Not really a true single edge knife

 THIS is the one! It's really light. Some may feel like it feels cheap, but I like it this light in my hand. I've cut an apple and mini bell peppers. It's so easy to handle! I could easily core the apple and maneuver confidently

 I've cut an apple and mini bell peppers. It's so easy to handle! I could easily core the apple and maneuver confidently. Heavy knives feel scary when I try to core things, like they might slip. I could easily core the teeny bell peppers too, without slicing them in half

6" utility: light, easy to handle, sharp!

This is a solid knife, however, the handle is made of cheap plastic which makes the whole product feel cheap.

Sharp knife but lackluster quality

Add one of our most popular vegetable and fruit prep knives to your collection with the Shun Cutlery Premier 5.5" Nakiri Knife. With its straight blade, edge, and spine, this Japanese nakiri vegetable knife is ideal for simple push cuts – making it perfect for everything from stir fry to salads. It's also a great all-purpose chef knife. The Premier Nakiri Knife is constructed with Shun's proprietary VG-Max cutting core with 68 layers of stainless Damascus cladding for a strong, corrosion-resistant, stain-resistant, razor sharp 16-degree edge. The hammered TSUCHIME finish is beautiful and helps release food easily when cutting. The walnut-finished, contoured Pakkawood handle is comfortable to use and offers a secure grip with excellent control.

TechGearLab

The Shun Premier 5.5-Inch is a high-quality blade and comes razor sharp right out of the box. This forged knife is well-balanced, with the center of mass just about a quarter of an inch toward the blade, making it easier to control. It proved again and again that it could handle all of the chopping tests that we put it through. It is comfortable to hold, and the hammered Damascus finish also makes for an aesthetically pleasing product.
We couldn't find much to gripe about with this knife, but we will say that though the finished handle is durable, the blade itself must be treated with care. Also, unless you manage to find a great sale, this nakiri knife will set you back a pretty penny. All things considered, we would choose this one over all others for its excellent blade and solid ergonomics.

We were hard-pressed to find shortcomings to complain about with this nakiri. However, we will mention that while the finished handle is durable, you must treat the blade itself with proper care.

Best Nakiri Knife of 2022 - GearLab

 I don't mind paying this much for a good knife that I will use on a daily basis at all, even if others in my family think I'm crazy! The cost of other knives in the set is a set-back, however, as I would be reluctant to spend the same amount on the 4-inch paring knife I have my eye on, or over $200 after duty, etc for the 6-inch santoku which I could easily find room for in my kitchen. If the santoku was the same price as this I would buy it in a second, and if the paring knife was around $70 I'd have that to. At the moment though this beauty will have to do, until it's time for another treat at which point I will definitely look to Shun again.  You really get what you pay for with knives in my experience

I have been on the hunt for a new knife for a while, having got hooked on the Global GS5 years ago and wanting a second similar knife for the kitchen for busy days.  Recently I have been reading a lot about various knife makes, European and Japanese, ceramic and steel, and got pointed in the direction of Wusthof- a mid-range German knife with good reviews that compare it favourably with much more expensive Japanese knives like Global, Shun, etc. however I wasn't at all happy with the Wusthof santoku knife I tried so I continued looking and finally took the plunge and bought the Shun Nakiri. I live in the UK and Amazon

 however I wasn't at all happy with the Wusthof santoku knife I tried so I continued looking and finally took the plunge and bought the Shun Nakiri. I live in the UK and Amazon.com had the best price, even after delivery and import costs, for this knife- the equivalent of around $150. It arrived this afternoon and I got it out and gave it a go

com had the best price, even after delivery and import costs, for this knife- the equivalent of around $150. It arrived this afternoon and I got it out and gave it a go. Immediately it is a huge improvement over the Wusthof and maybe slightly better than the Global it was bought to offer an alternative to. Needless to say I am over the moon

Awesome vegetable knife

 I've used Shun knives for years, and recently added a Nakiri. It arrived AS SHARP AS A RAZOR. All things said, if you take care of your TOOLS - your TOOLS will take care of you.

. ANY knives made from Damascus steel should NOT be thrown around, chopped with like an axe, or used on ANYTHING other than a WOOD CUTTING BOARD. As well, try watching Shun videos or those on YouTube on how to hone and sharpen your knives. YOU CANNOT use an Electric Knife Sharpener as most are setup to put the WRONG ANGLE on these knives

Sharp and Durable despite what the Ignorant Write

 This knife has stayed sharper longer than other knives despite finding a reason or two to use it daily. We intend to purchase more knives from this line in the future. This knife will also make a great gift for anyone that appreciates the value of a good knife.

 This knife has rekindled a joy for cooking that I have not felt in years. It chops through everything like butter (including meat, even though I understand that it is intended for vegetables).

We already own a set of Shun knives, but they do not begin to compare with this one! Not only is it super sharp and easy to use, it is beautiful to just gaze upon. No really, it is a genuine work of art. This knife has rekindled a joy for cooking that I have not felt in years. It chops through everything like butter (including meat, even though I understand that it is intended for vegetables)

Bold & Beautiful

 I love the shape of it and how I can manipulate what I'm cutting with the wide flat end of the blade. It's not too long and not too short. I had other Shuns (3 set), Wusthof (santoku), and Henkel, this one I bought for when I was away from those. Now it's my goto for most everything

My favorite Shun

9 ounces, 167 grams. Blade length is five point seven, five inches, a little under 150 and the overall length about 11 inches from tip to end of handle. The spine on these is about 1.9 millimeters, carries most of that all the way through the blade towards the end of the blade and then the height on here is about forty six point six millimeters and the handle type is their oval PACA would handle with a emboss but cap or end cap on it and it has a bulge towards the middle and a slightly smaller ferrule than on the classic series

 Very comfortable just for comparison's sake. here is the classic Just so you can see the difference between the two. If you're curious, the classic in this case is a bigger blade. It's a six and a half versus five and a half

 This knife line as a core steel of Vg-10 stainless with a heat treat rating about 60 61 Rockwell The construction is stainless, multi-layered cladding with a Damascus pattern over the top of that core steel. so there's a pretty good look at the Damascus it's a tight Damascus pattern. These layers are the thinner blade and the layers are tighter together. It's pretty cool look actually and you can see the core steel peeking through there at the cladding line

 These babies are thin at the edge. There's your edge profile which is a little different style than on the classic. The classic has a flatter spot towards the back half and then a little bit of a sweep towards the front. This has kind of more flatter spot in the general and a little bit of I guess back reinder or curved to the front and the back towards the heel
