      Nakiri is considered a useful knife to cut without splitting or cracking relatively hard vegetables, popular among vegetarians. Nakiri is a double bevel edged knife to efficiently cut, slice, and mince vegetables. Though the nakiri is often mistaken for a mini Chinese cleaver due to its flat, rectangular, and thin blade, it cannot be used to cut tough materials like bones.

      Blue (Aogami) #1 (Hitachi Metals Ltd.) is very similar to Blue Steel #2, but the additional Carbon and Tungsten / Wolfram result in even better edge retention and toughness. The steel is perhaps most commonly seen in high-grade Japanese traditional knives.
