The Nakiri knife is rapidly becoming a must-have companion to the chef’s knife, cherished for its unique design and precision in vegetable preparation. This traditional Japanese knife resembles a small cleaver but is not intended for heavy-duty or impact cutting. Its thin, flat-edged blade is designed specifically for straight downward motions, excelling at chopping and slicing vegetables cleanly.

Crafted from High Performance SLD steel, this knife represents a new generation of materials engineered in Japan to exceed the capabilities of traditional metals. Known for its excellent wear resistance, SLD steel offers hardness comparable to blue high carbon steel, along with improved stain resistance. This combination provides a knife that stays sharp for extended use while being easier to maintain. The Damascus layering process, with 33 to 35 layers, enhances both the blade’s visual appeal and its functional strength.

The Nakiri’s thin, refined blade glides effortlessly through food with minimal resistance, used for precision cuts rather than forceful chopping. It is not recommended for cutting through bones, frozen foods, or hard materials. The mirror finish adds elegance while making cleaning simple and efficient.

Paired with a handcrafted octagonal Ironwood handle, the Nakiri offers comfort for both left- and right-handed users. An optional Magnolia wood Saya cover provides safe storage. Perfect for daily vegetable prep, this handcrafted Nakiri knife turns slicing, dicing, and chopping fresh produce into an enjoyable, artful experience—balancing performance, beauty, and care in every detail.

Great price great shoe
Size: 12, Color: Burgundy Polished Full Grain
Excellent shoe. Tried the Sebago penny loafer and the sizing was ridiculous. These J and M are sized perfectly. I’ve had them before and they wear like iron. Very comfortable right out of the box.

Quality shoe but with a slight squeak.
Size: 10 Wide, Color: Burgundy Polished Full Grain
Nice shoes with the classic Penny Loafer design. Fit was better than another brand I tried. Only reason not 5 starts is disappointment due to a slight squeak at times when walking.

Exact item ordered, quick delivery
Size: 9.5, Color: Black Polished Full Grain
I ordered these black Cole Haan penny loafers for casual wear with jeans, khakies, and even business casual with slacks and a jacket. They've always worked perfectly for these uses. The Cole Haan version is the most versatile and still meets my sophisticated look criteria. I wear a 9 1/2 M with almost all other shoes. I have found Cole Haan to run slightly wider and slightly shorter. This fit will work with thin and no socks and a little loose in width. . I'd likely order a 10 N next time. I tend to forget this but it runs consistent with me for Cole Haan. 5 stars for the shoe and service. My bad on the slightly off fit.

Poor quality control - maybe outlet store leftovers
Size: 11.5, Color: Burgundy Polished Full Grain
The two shoes were not the same size. They were both labeled 11 1/2 but one shoe was larger than the other and the fit was poor. I returned the first pair and ordered a replacement. This time the shoes were close to the same size but too loose and the left one has sewing issues. I've bought Johnston & Murphy for years because of the quality. These were to replace an existing pair of burgundy penny loafers that have finally worn out (even after several heal/sole replacements). That is the expected quality. I suspect Nashville Shoe Warehouse may be handling shoes that didn't measure up for the quality; more like an outlet mall than getting the J&M quality I've come to expect. Update: went to Johnston & Murphy site to buy "direct" from the manufacturer. There were several recent reviews where the shoes were long and didn't fit properly. Genesco - please step up the manufacture / crafting of these classic shoes to the level of quality they used to have.
