Allday Goods Fruit Salad Forged Nakiri Knife, 15cm

Description A nakiri knife is a great all-rounder for home cooks. The powerful blade makes light work of slicing, dicing and mincing. It’s great for tough vegetables like squash and swede. The blade is hand-forged from high carbon British steel. It’s incredibly sharp and holds its edge well. You can use the wide, flat blade to scoop food from your chopping board. The black scale is left on the blade to prevent rust. This is known as kurouchi or ‘blacksmith’s finish’. The knife has an octagonal handle made from waste plastic. The plastic is washed, shredded and melted into the handle shape. The vibrant shades of pink, yellow and orange are reminiscent of fruit salad sweets. No two handles are the same, so each knife has its own unique pattern. This nakiri knife is handmade in Somerset, UK. Hand wash only. Not dishwasher safe. About Allday Goods The founder of Allday Goods, Hugo, used to work as a chef in London and ran his own restaurant. After closing down his restaurant and thinking back of many friends always asking for high quality knives that don’t break the bank. After working in a professional kitchen and seeing how much plastic waste there is, Hugo thought to combine it with notoriously high quality Japanese blades. After a lot of searching and translated zoom calls, he started a collaboration with one of the best knife makers in Japan, Yoshikazu. Hugo’s first knife drop was a small batch of 100 knives was announced on Instagram in March 2021, and all sold out in just over 1 minute. Their first big launch was on Kickstarter in April 2022, where they reached their funding goal in 3 hours, and have continuously been growing since.
