Hand-Forged Kitchen Knives: Nakiri, Santoku & Serbian Chef Knife – Sharp, Durable & Crafted with Solid Wood Handles

Three Knives. One Philosophy: Hand-Forged Excellence for Every Kitchen

Not all kitchen tasks are the same—so why use just one knife? Our curated trio of hand-forged blades—the Nakiri, Santoku, and Serbian Chef Knife—brings together centuries of global craftsmanship into a versatile, high-performance collection.

Each knife is:
✅ Hand-forged by master bladesmiths
✅ Made from premium high-carbon or stainless steel for lasting sharpness
✅ Fitted with a solid wooden handle for comfort, balance, and timeless beauty
✅ Designed to be intuitive, easy to use, and built to last a lifetime

Whether you’re chopping vegetables, slicing fish, or breaking down proteins, there’s a perfect blade waiting for your hand.

1. Nakiri – The Vegetable Virtuoso (Japan)

• Blade: Flat edge, straight profile (160–180mm)
• Best for: Chopping, slicing, and dicing vegetables with clean, push-cut motions
• Why you’ll love it: No rocking needed—just smooth, efficient cuts through carrots, cabbage, and herbs. The thin, sharp edge prevents bruising delicate produce.
• Handle: Solid walnut or cherry wood—lightweight and balanced for precision.

Ideal for: Plant-based cooks, Japanese cuisine lovers, and anyone tired of uneven veggie cuts.

2. Santoku – The All-Purpose Performer (Japan)

• Blade: Shorter than a Gyuto (180mm), with a slight curve and Granton edge (optional)
• Best for: Slicing meat, fish, and vegetables—truly “three virtues” in one blade
• Why you’ll love it: Combines agility and control. The Granton dimples reduce food stick, making it perfect for paper-thin radish or salmon slices.
• Handle: Ergonomic solid wood—comfortable for both pinch grip and full-hand hold.

Ideal for: Home chefs who want one reliable knife for 90% of daily tasks.

3. Serbian Chef Knife – The Bold & Balanced Beast (Balkans)

• Blade: Wide, sturdy, often 200–220mm with pronounced belly and robust spine
• Best for: Heavy-duty tasks—chopping herbs, mincing garlic, breaking down poultry, even light bone work
• Why you’ll love it: Combines the heft of a cleaver with the finesse of a chef’s knife. Its weight does the work—so your wrist doesn’t.
• Handle: Dense solid oak or hornbeam—designed for durability and secure grip, even when wet.

Ideal for: Rustic cooking, outdoor kitchens, and chefs who value power + control.

Why Hand-Forged? The Difference You Can Feel

Mass-produced knives prioritize speed over soul. Ours are forged slowly, heat-treated precisely, and finished by hand—resulting in:

• Superior edge geometry for long-lasting sharpness
• Unique grain patterns and temper lines (hamon) that celebrate their origin
• Perfect weight distribution—no wrist fatigue, even during long prep sessions
• Solid wooden handles that age gracefully, developing a rich patina with use

These aren’t just tools. They’re heirlooms in the making.

Easy to Use. Easy to Love.

Despite their artisan origins, these knives are designed for real kitchens:

• Intuitive balance for both beginners and pros
• Clear purpose for each blade—no guesswork
• Simple maintenance: hand-wash, dry, store properly
• Includes a care guide and sharpening tips

You don’t need to be a master chef to appreciate how good steel and honest wood feel in your hand.
