Touroku Sakai Blue Super Stainless Clad S-Grind Nakiri 🔥🔪
This 160mm Touroku Sakai Nakiri is a strong example of what makes Blue Super carbon steel so appealing.
Chef Elan walks through the Blue Super core, stainless cladding, S-grind geometry for better food release, and the hardness range that gives this knife excellent long edge retention. He also covers the maintenance side of carbon steel, including why regular light upkeep matters and how a healthy patina helps protect the blade over time.
The profile is another highlight, with a little extra curve up front that makes this nakiri feel especially comfortable in motion on the board.
