Vegetable knives for precise cuts
A sharp vegetable knife cuts tomatoes, onions, root vegetables and herbs cleanly without unnecessarily crushing the food. This ensures precise cuts, attractive preparation and comfortable work in the kitchen.
At MISAKI, you will find selected Nakiri knives, Santoku knives and chef knives for this. Depending on the blade shape, they are suitable for fine vegetable strips, larger ingredients, herbs or versatile prep work.
Nakiri, Santoku or chef knife?
The Nakiri was developed specifically for vegetables. Its broad blade and straight edge enable controlled cuts and make it easier to pick up the cut food.
A Santoku is compact, balanced and versatile. It is suitable for vegetables, herbs and many other ingredients. The longer chef knife offers more reach and is especially practical for larger vegetables and extensive prep work.
Vegetable knives made from Damascus steel
A sharp Damascus blade requires less pressure when cutting. This means delicate ingredients are crushed less and clean cut surfaces are created. The high edge retention makes MISAKI vegetable knives reliable companions for daily preparation.
Cutting and caring for them correctly
Use a suitable cutting surface made from wood or plastic. Glass, stone, frozen food and hard pits can damage the edge. Clean the knife by hand and dry it carefully immediately after use.
