Description The FK-150-NWH Ceramic Nakiri 6″ by Kyocera is a Japanese style cooking blades. This knife has the largest knuckle clearance.The handle allows for precise control. Kyocera in Japan makes the ceramic blades. Heimerdinger carries a number of the Kyocera products. The nakiri style’s popularity pre-dates the santoku’s. The basic square blade has the same rectangular shape of the classic Chinese vegetable cleaver, but the smaller profile lends itself to a broader range of cooks at home. The straight back of the blade is better for scraping a cutting board, either in cleaning, or for depositing chopped morsels into one’s wok or cooking pan. This is preferable so the cutting edge is not used for the scraping, causing premature dulling. The unrelenting sharpness of ceramic blades is from ceramic’s hardness advantage. The razor sharp blades on ceramic knives retain their edges 8 to 10 times longer than steel. In using ceramic knives and kitchen tools one should always take care. Their incredible sharpness is deceptive. Caution is the watchword in using these high-tech tools. Not for use by children. Ceramic blades will chip or break if dropped or used for prying. We recommend using wooden or a very soft synthetic cutting board in your kitchen. While Kyocera says the ceramic products are dishwasher safe, we do not recommend putting them in the dishwasher. The very sharp edge is very delicate and can be damaged as knife bounces around in the water and can possibly damage the blade.
