Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What type of steel is used in the XINZUO Jiang Series Nakiri Knife blade?
A: The blade is made from original Japanese 67-layer AUS10 Damascus stainless steel, heat-treated to a core hardness of 60±2 HRC. This high-performance steel offers excellent edge retention, superior rust resistance, and the beautiful wave-patterned Damascus aesthetic that sets XINZUO knives apart.
Q: Is the XINZUO Nakiri Knife suitable for both vegetables and meat?
A: Yes! While the nakiri style is traditionally designed for precise vegetable preparation — slicing, dicing, and chopping — the XINZUO Jiang Series 7-inch nakiri is also highly effective for slicing boneless meats and fish. Its 15°±1 per side edge angle ensures clean, effortless cuts through a wide variety of ingredients.
Q: How should I care for my XINZUO Damascus Nakiri Knife?
A: To maintain the blade's sharpness and Damascus pattern, hand-wash the knife with mild soap and warm water, then dry immediately. Avoid the dishwasher, as prolonged exposure to moisture and heat can dull the edge. Store in the included handmade box or on a magnetic knife strip. Regular honing with a ceramic or leather strop will keep the 15° edge at peak performance.
Q: What makes the Black Walnut handle special?
A: The North American Black Walnut handle is prized for its natural beauty, warmth, and durability. It is paired with a White Synthetic Ox Bone patch for a refined contrast. The rounded knife root and spine arc are ergonomically shaped to reduce finger fatigue during extended use, providing a secure, comfortable grip for cooks of all experience levels.
