Inspired by the colours and character of Australia's iconic Bondi Beach, the Bondi Beach Series 17.5cm Nakiri brings a distinctive coastal look to a knife designed specifically for vegetable preparation.
With its wide Nakiri profile, this knife is made for chopping, slicing, and dicing vegetables, herbs, and other produce. The combination of a patterned Damascus blade and resin and natural wood burl handle gives it the visual character the Bondi Beach Series is known for.
What Is This Knife For?
A Nakiri is a vegetable-focused kitchen knife with a wide blade and straight cutting edge. The 17.5cm size makes this knife particularly practical for everyday vegetable preparation, giving you plenty of blade surface without the length of a full-size chef knife.

Slicing and dicing produce
Leafy greens and herbs

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Bondi Beach 17.5cm Nakiri best used for?
The Bondi Beach Nakiri has a relatively flat cutting edge designed for controlled chopping, slicing and push-cutting. Compared with a chef knife's more curved profile, the flatter Nakiri edge allows a larger portion of the blade to contact the cutting board during straight cutting motions. This makes the Nakiri particularly suited to vegetable preparation.
How is the Bondi Beach Nakiri different from a standard chef knife?
The Bondi Beach Nakiri has a relatively flat cutting edge designed for controlled chopping, slicing and push-cutting.

This makes the Nakiri particularly suited to vegetable preparation.
What vegetables is the Bondi Beach 17.5cm Nakiri best suited for?
The Bondi Beach 17.5cm / 7-inch Nakiri is designed for a wide range of vegetable preparation, including chopping onions, carrots, potatoes, cabbage, zucchini, tomatoes and leafy greens. Its relatively flat cutting edge is suited to controlled chopping, slicing and dicing.
Can the Bondi Beach Nakiri cut firm vegetables such as potatoes?
Yes. The Bondi Beach Nakiri is designed for vegetable preparation and can be used for many firm vegetables, including potatoes, carrots and beets, when using controlled cutting technique. Avoid twisting, prying or forcing the blade through hard ingredients. For exceptionally hard or large squash, a heavier-duty knife may be more appropriate.
What is the return or warranty policy for this knife?
Chef Supply Co stands by its products and all Chef Supply Co branded products are backed by our limited lifetime warranty. Products not branded Chef Supply Co only carry a 12 month warranty unless the otherwise advised by the manufacturer.
We cover any faults of materials or workmanship at our discretion.
Can this knife cut through bones or frozen foods?
We recommend using a cleaver or specialty knife for bones or frozen items. Using a standard kitchen knife may damage the blade.
Is this knife dishwasher-safe?
We recommend handwashing to protect the blade’s edge and maintain the handle’s integrity. Dishwashers can dull the blade and damage the handle over time.
How should I sharpen this knife?
You can use a whetstone, honing rod, or professional sharpener. Regular honing maintains the edge, while sharpening restores it when dull.
What’s the best way to store this knife?
Store it in a knife block, magnetic strip, blade guard, or sheath to keep the edge protected and prevent accidents.
