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.
