165mm nakiri vegetable knife, oak and brass ferrule handle. Aogami Super carbon steel core with stainless steel cladding.

Designed by Josh Donald and made by Blenheim Forge based on work done with Josh Donald and James Ross-Harris at the Blenheim Forge works in the UK in the spring of 2023. This knife blends the production methods and materials and that are integral to Blenheim Forge's technique and blade geometry from Josh referencing classic Sakai style dimensions. It has a narrower blade with a flatter tip end with just a little curve to the edge for quick contact with the entire blade and cutting board while being tolerant of a little sweep in a forward push cut. Blade is forged and ground thin for smooth cutting. 

Forged, ground and handles made by hand at the Blenheim Forge works in Peckham South London. Blenheim Forge knives are made with Japanese aogami super tungsten carbon steel and English woods and handle materials.

Their aogami super is characterized by a nice sharpenability and good cutting feel and edge life at medium and fine finishes (3000 to 6000+ Japanese grit scale). These have a good toughness for their hardness but are not suited for hacking, twisting or cutting bones.

Please note this nakiri does not quite fit the standard Blenheim nakiri sheath
