The knife is symmetrical, so would not appear to made with any bias towards a right hand user. **Q: For the Keemake Nakiri: What is the width of the blade and thickness of the blade (thickness measured at spine)?** A: 1/8 inch. This is my favorite kitchen knife without question. I have the highest quality knives in my kitchen and I have a few Japanese style knives but needed just the right veggie knife and this met all requirements. Quality and most importantly it fits my hand perfectly for all my needs. Just a great knife. **Q: Is the high carbon stainless steel the same as a Carbon steel knife, and do i have to maintain it with oil?** A: No ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Schärfste Messer in der Schublade *by G***S on 7 February 2025* Wie ein Uhrwerk...schneidet alles ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good quality *by W***N on 15 November 2024* Well packed and the item was in good condition after i recieved it even thoug is a bit late on delivery.the quality of the knife is good i used it for one month since i recieved it the sharpness are still good ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Buon compromesso qualità-prezzo, ma non perfetto *by I***A on 17 June 2024* Ho acquistato il coltello giapponese Keemake dopo aver letto diverse recensioni positive e, tutto sommato, posso dire che non sono rimasto deluso. Tuttavia, ci sono alcune considerazioni che vorrei condividere per aiutare altri potenziali acquirenti. #### Qualità Costruttiva Il coltello Keemake ha una buona qualità costruttiva, specialmente considerando il prezzo contenuto rispetto ad altri coltelli giapponesi di fascia alta. La lama è affilata e mantiene un buon filo anche dopo diverse sessioni di utilizzo. Il manico è ergonomico e confortevole, rendendo il coltello facile da maneggiare per lunghi periodi senza affaticare la mano. #### Prestazioni Le prestazioni del coltello sono più che soddisfacenti per un uso quotidiano in cucina. È eccellente per tagliare verdure, carne e pesce con precisione. Tuttavia, quando si tratta di compiti più impegnativi, come tagliare pezzi di carne più spessi o alimenti più duri, si nota che non è al livello dei coltelli professionali più costosi. #### Prezzo Il prezzo è uno dei punti di forza di questo coltello. È difficile trovare un coltello giapponese di buona qualità a un prezzo così accessibile. Questo lo rende un'opzione eccellente per chi cerca un buon coltello senza spendere una fortuna. #### Aspetti Negativi Nonostante i numerosi aspetti positivi, il Keemake non riesce a soddisfare completamente le esigenze di chi è abituato a coltelli di fascia alta. La lama, seppur affilata, non ha la stessa resistenza e tenuta del filo di coltelli più costosi. Inoltre, il manico, pur essendo confortevole, non ha quella sensazione di solidità che si trova nei coltelli professionali. #### Conclusione In conclusione, il coltello giapponese Keemake rappresenta un buon compromesso tra qualità e prezzo. È ideale per chi cerca un coltello affidabile per l'uso quotidiano senza spendere cifre esorbitanti. Tuttavia, se siete alla ricerca di un coltello di qualità professionale, potreste rimanere con il desiderio di qualcosa di più performante. Per il prezzo pagato, però, è difficile chiedere di meglio. ## Frequently Bought Together - KEEMAKE Japanese Gyuto Chef Knife - 8 inch Professional Kitchen Knife with 440C High Carbon Steel Blade, Sharp Cutting Knives Rosewood Handle for Home Cooking and Restaurant - 4-in-1 Kitchen Knife Accessories: 3-Stage Knife Sharpener Helps Repair, Restore, Polish Blades and Cut-Resistant Glove (Black) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.sn/products/496718674-keemake-8-inch-chef-knife-japanese-hand-forged-high-carbon](https://www.desertcart.sn/products/496718674-keemake-8-inch-chef-knife-japanese-hand-forged-high-carbon) --- *Product available on Desertcart Senegal* *Store origin: SN* *Last updated: 2026-08-08*
