Hitohira Hinode Tsuchime White #2 Nakiri 165mm Ho Wood Handle

The classic vegetable knife. Highly functional for processing large amounts of vegetables and preforming finer cutting tasks such as julienne of brunoise. The absence of a pronounced belly in the profile orientates it more towards chopping style cutting motions rather than rolling cuts.
