The third tier of Spyderco’s Murray Carter Collection, the apprentice series Minarai ("to look and learn") knives come with rugged and serviceable materials ready to tackle prep work every day of the week: solid CTS-BD1N stainless steel blades and smooth, black polypropylene handles.
Brand new, direct from Spyderco.
Meaning “vegetable cutter,” the unique rectangular shape and slightly upturned edge of the Nakiri make it the perfect tool for precisely push-cutting all kinds of vegetables. This blade shape also allows its length to remain consistent after years of sharpening.
Blade: The fully flat ground, CTS-BD1N stainless steel blade has an upturned, flat tip with a very tall blade that is perfect for push cutting and chopping all manner of vegetable. The flat, wide blade is also great for transferring chopped vegetable from board to pan. A handsome machine satin finish with polished edges gives the knife a high-end look.
Handle: Made from smooth black polypropylene the handle is a traditional octagonal shape that is comfortable in multiple grips. The material is durable, nonporous, heat and chemical resistant and easy to clean. The lightweight of the material offers good balance while minimizing fatigue during extended use.
CTS-BD1N: BD1N is a high Carbon, high Chromium, Nitrogen-Enriched stainless steel from Carpenter. It offers a high working hardness while retaining good toughness and edge stability. CTS-BD1N works well as a knife steel with a fine grain, solid corrosion resistance and respectable edge holding ability as well as being capable of handling a thinner (12-15 DPS) cutting geometry.
