It bears no country of origin. In the description information it refers to Japanese and under Country of Origin it also says Japan. How do you know where these knives are made; please tell me. Thank you very much. Mk **Q: Dose this come with warranty if it breaks?** A: This knife is made of Damascus steel. unless you severely abuse it, like using it for a tire iron, It is not going to break. These people seem to be very big on customer satisfaction and if you did manage to break it I am sure they would replace it, I am sure. **Q: Why does this Santoku not have the divots? Do veggies stick to the knife when slicing?** A: From here it looks like it does, unless you got the polished one, they will most likely have the stamp marks... the blackness kinda hides them, but no, I haven't had problems with anything sticking . **Q: Is the blade full tang? Specifically does it extend through the handle?** A: It’s not a full tang, it’s a hidden tang. It runs the length of the handle, yes, but full tangs are the entire width of the handle ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ sharp, beautiful, high quality knife *by M***S on September 15, 2026* Sharp and high quality knife. It's a beautiful and functional addition in our kitchen. It slices, it dices, and it looks great on our magnetic knife block when not being used. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent knife that looks incredible. Higher quality than anticipated! *by N***D on January 5, 2026* Excellent, sharp, beautiful, and ergonomically sound knife. I gave this as a gift for christmas and the recipient is in love with it. It performs so well and is extremely sharp. It cuts like butter and the grip feels great in the hand. Fantastic knife for the price. Highly recommend. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A great knife! *by I***' on May 12, 2025* The Nakiri knife is an excellent, capable knife at this price point. I use it mainly for cutting vegetables, so I use it as more of a specialist knife, and in this area it excels. With it's "flat-ish" (almost straight) belly, forward slice chopping through ingredients are a breeze and mincing garlic can be done quickly with ease. I LOVE its aesthetics, although I've heard that the Tsuchime finish doesn't always prevent food from sticking to it, I still think it works better than knives without the finish. It also looks great if displaying it on a magnetic knife holder. I appreciate the stainless content of the blade which makes maintenance a lot easier. Although the 9cr mov steel is not as high-end as other knife steels, it really is the heat treatment and blade and edge geometry that count for me. It will shred magazine paper all day, but maybe not hold an edge for as long as the higher-end steels. I always hone with a ceramic stone and leather strop often anyway, and I'm not a professional chef who has to prepare ingredients for hundreds of meals on a daily basis. On an emotional note, I think its a functional work of art that also makes food preparation easier and fun and gets me excited every time I use it. ## Frequently Bought Together - MITSUMOTO SAKARI 7 inch Japanese Nakiri Chef Knife, High Carbon Stainless Steel Vegetable Kitchen Knife, Hand Forged Professional Multipurpose Asian Chef Knife (Rosewood Handle & Sandalwood Box) - MITSUMOTO SAKARI Japanese Knife Sharpening Stone, Professional Kitchen 1000/3000 Grit Knife Sharpener Stone, Non-Slip Wooden Seat whetstone knife sharpener - MITSUMOTO SAKARI Kitchen Magnetic Knife Block Holder, Japanese Acacia Wood Storage Knife Tool Holder, Enhanced Double-Sided Magnetic Strip Wooden Knife Holder --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.au/products/363311426-7-inch-nakiri-chef-s-knife](https://www.desertcart.com.au/products/363311426-7-inch-nakiri-chef-s-knife) --- *Product available on Desertcart Australia* *Store origin: AU* *Last updated: 2026-10-17*
