WOW! The first time I used this, I sliced a very large butternut squash sitting upright on its bottom from its skinny top (after removing the stem bit) all the way to the fat bottom with relative ease. Just a bit of easy rocking back and forth after getting about half-way down and done! My wife and I love squash cut up into roughly inch-sized cubes, marinated and cooked in the air fryer, but I have NEVER been able to do that with any of the other knives we own, not even the extremely nice 8 inch chef's knife costing about six times more than this! I always had to lay the squash on its side first, and I still had a time getting them halved. Over time, I'd tried every knife we had on butternut squash and eventually had settled on our Santoku for veggies like these (and sweet potatoes). It worked, but this knife was in another league entirely, because the Nakiri was designed for the job. The difference was striking; the Santoku got the job done, but it was much quicker and easier with our new Nakiri. That was the first time I used it, but it soon proved to be just as good (and better) at cutting up any and all of the vegetables we enjoy. Soft meats and fish too. It's a wonderful addition to our kitchen toolchest. Unfortunately, I'm unable to stand erect these days, but seated, I still can do most of the prep and cutting work for the meals my wife and I whip up. She does the actual cooking and cleaning, so this helps me feel like I'm still making a contribution and keeps my hand in the overall effort. I loved cooking and everything about it when healthier, well, except maybe washing silverware, so I do what I can. It works for us. My wife brings me the knife (or knives) I'll need and the items needing work and I do my best to get those items in shape for cooking or serving. As it happens, most of that work, especially cutting foods into the shapes giving us the best results in our air fryer, is vegetable in nature, and for me, this knife absolutely is THE tool for those jobs. Most of my other great knives work, but not nearly as handily or as easily as the jobs becomes with this bad boy. I LOVE IT! ;-) This is a very good knife, razor sharp on delivery and even with regularly cutting up tougher veggies like sweet potato and butternut squash into cubes of roughly one inch, keeping it that way has been no problem. All it takes is regular (after every use) use of a sharpening steel, immediate hand washing and drying and finally, storing it on a magnetic strip (or some other method) to keep it out of a drawer, which is not at all conducive to keeping a blade edge in anything but poor shape. After each use, I clean the edge as much as possible on the spot (my wife will hand wash & dry it when I'm done) and give each side 10 or 20 strokes on the steel. That's usually all it takes, but I test it. If drawing the blade across a napkin or tissue cuts through without the tissue 'catching,' I'm done. Otherwise, back on the steel for 10 or 20 more, repeating as necessary. My Nakiri will cut meat, fish and other foods easily as well, as long as I don't try cutting bones or anything similar that might chip or otherwise damage that super-fine hone on the business edge of the blade. On anything hard-frozen or containing bones, I usually just use a knife better suited for the job. My Nakiri is fantastic on vegetables and soft flesh, but it wasn't designed to be used on anything else, so I don't. That's it. Great price, easy to maintain, super handy, gets the job donej on veggies better than my other chef knives (which are just as useful as ever for the rest of our needs), so it's a no-brainer. This knife might not be a pricey, higher-end example of the type, but it gets the job done for me, and does it better than the other knives I enjoy using, so I'm sold. ;-) Recommended.

I recently added the PAUDIN 7" Nakiri to my kitchen rotation, and it has quickly become my go-to for daily meal prep. If you’ve never used a Nakiri before, the flat profile is a game-changer for "push-cutting" vegetables without that annoying "accordion" effect where the slices stay connected. What I like: Out-of-the-Box Sharpness: It arrived razor-sharp. It glides through tough sweet potatoes and delicate tomatoes with equal ease. Ergonomics: The handle feels premium and fits comfortably in the hand, providing great control for fine dicing. The Aesthetic: The blade pattern looks beautiful on a magnetic knife strip—it definitely looks more expensive than it actually is. Versatility: While it's marketed as a vegetable knife, the height of the blade makes it a great "scoop" to transfer chopped food from the board to the pan. A quick tip: This is high-carbon stainless steel, so make sure to hand wash and dry it immediately to keep that finish looking pristine. Don't throw this one in the dishwasher! Overall, if you’re looking to upgrade from a standard chef’s knife for your vegetable prep, this is a fantastic value for the price.
