The Mcusta Zanmai Supreme Ripple 165 mm Nakiri knife is a double bevel edged knife, lightweight, with thin blade profile, mainly used by cooks for quickly and efficiently chopping, slicing, and mincing vegetables and fruits.

Like all knives of the Ripple series, it is a breathtaking knife, lightweight despite its look, agile, with an extremely comfortable grip. 

A joy to work with and a beauty to look at.

The Mcusta Zanmai Supreme Ripple  ザンマイ シュープリーム 波目  knives are made from 33 layers of Damascus steel and feature a very tough high carbon VG-10 steel core inside.
The completely mirror-polished, very sharp and robust blades of the line have a damask grain and a hand-applied rippling technique in the upper area. 
The unique Ripple pattern is originally created by the Zanmai technology, which you may never find it in the world.The design represents ocean and shore line. It's associated with a Japanese traditional picture in the Edo era.

Like in every Mcusta Zanmai knife, the edge which can reach 9°, is finished in Zanmai's perfect Hamaguri V-Cut form, making it incredibly sharp and the ideal structure to cut food effortlessly. 

The high-quality octagonal handle (Hokkaku shape) is made of red-black Pakka wood, it has an antibacterial ferrule made of stainless steel and a stainless steel pin surrounded by abalone (snail shell).

Visually, a real eye-catcher, from Seki Japan.
