Windmühlenmesser "K N" Nakiri Knife – Plum Wood Handle, Stainless Steel Blade

The "K N" Nakiri knife, featuring a stainless steel blade and a plum wood handle.
Its rectangular blade shape is perfectly optimized for rapidly slicing and chopping vegetables on a cutting board.

Knives in the K-series feature stainless steel blades with a 0.7% carbon content and a hardness of 60 HRC (Rockwell scale). The blade undergoes a "blue polishing" (*Blaupließten*) process. Long considered the most sophisticated technique in the Solingen grinding trade, this process gives the blades an iridescent, bluish sheen.
The plum wood handle, secured with aluminum rivets, is distinguished by its curved, oval shape.

The handle is made of plum wood a particularly hard, dense, and water-resistant timber. Its natural, marbled tones shift beautifully between tawny brown, red, and hints of purple.
