Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Wasabi 6716N Black Nakiri Knife, 6-1/2-Inch

Customer Review: Misleading information but knife appears OK
Summary: 2 Stars

The Product Features and Product Description claim that this knife is a traditional style Japanese knife with "unique single sided blade design" and "sharpened on one side. The knife arrived today and this is a boldfaced LIE!!! But I suspected that it was and ordered it anyway. A Japanese knife of this style and design is called an usuba. The same knife double ground is known as a nakiri which this knife is advertises as being. If you want a single ground knife make sure it says usuba.
That being said it appears to be a good knife,especially for the price. It sliced a sheet of paper right out of the box. I haven't use it yet as it just came about an hour ago. So I can't give the actual nkife a rating. The information gets about 2 stars.
