7 inch CPM S35VN chef's knife with black micarta handle and 304 stainless bolsters

Apex Steel Works S35VN Nakiri Chef’s Knife – 7 inch stainless steel blade, made by hand in the USA – Professional Chef Kitchen Cutlery – These are 2023 production with the previous “Apex Ironworks” logo and on clearance. 

The nakiri chef’s knife is a nearly straight edged keen vegetable slicer – the blade is thin and agile and laser sharp allowing fast, accurate push cuts through appropriate materials.  The minimal belly allows easy contact with the cutting surface for speed and efficiency in use.

Apex Steel Works’ nakiri is 2 inches wide – the traditional width to allow easy manipulation of foodstuffs from the cutting board to the pan – with a 0.095 spine thickness for lightweight handling.

These chef’s knives are a direct competitor to the highest quality Japanese and German cutlery with a very fine <.004 terminal edge, 60-61HRC S35VN blade and all stainless and black micarta construction.

The performance is second to none. All our knives ship free!
