Miyabi 5000MCD-B 170 mm Nakiri Knife

Miyabi 5000MCD-B 170 mm Nakiri Knife. Make vegetable preparation the focus with a nakiri. Its broad rectangular profile suits cabbage, cucumber, leafy greens and other board-based jobs where a controlled cutting path matters more than a pointed tip.

At a glance

• Vegetable-focused blade

  The relatively straight edge supports deliberate up-and-down or forward cuts through vegetables on a stable board.

• SG2 steel core

  SG2 powder steel sits inside a layered Damascus blade, pairing a patterned surface with a dedicated cutting core.

• Masur birch handle

  The D-shaped masur birch handle brings natural wood grain to the knife. Individual grain patterns vary.

Find your fit

Choose this shape for vegetable-heavy meals and keep a pointed knife available for other tasks. Cut large ingredients into manageable pieces first; the rectangular shape does not make this a bone cleaver. Our guides help you compare nakiri and santoku and prepare even vegetable matchsticks.

Care and storage

Hand-wash with mild detergent, dry promptly and store with the edge protected. Use a suitable cutting board; avoid bones, frozen ingredients and sideways pressure. Follow the model’s instructions when sharpening.
