About Kyohei Shindo - Shindo san is a young blacksmith out of Tosa. He is originally from Hokkaido and went to university in Okinawa. He had always wanted to become a craftsman and found the blacksmithing was the craft for him. Tosa was the place where the image of the blacksmith matched to the image he had about it so he moved to Tosa. He had hard time but in May of 2020, he finally started his own workshop after practicing for 8 years.
About the Shape - Underutilized in the western kitchen, the nakiri’s flat blade is meant for the push/pull chopping of vegetables. Since the entire flat edge of the knife touches the cutting board at once, you won't be turning the vegetable into an 'accordion', pieces that are still connected by a thread after you've cut them. The added weight of the blade allows it to fall through food more easily while you chop, so the knife does more of the work for you! How great is that?
