Why you'll love it

Paper-thin vegetables with the Heritage Nakiri.

The edge is dead straight, so it meets the board along its whole length. Carrot slices fall apart cleanly instead of hanging together by a thread.

The Heritage has a sandalwood handle. The Damascus steel is hardened to 60-62 HRC, so the edge stays sharp for a long time between sharpenings.

It arrives in its own gift box and comes with a lifetime warranty.

What's included
  • Nakiri vegetable knife 18 cm, Galaxy Heritage
  • Gift box
Blade & performance

Forged from 67 layers of Damascus steel and hardened to 60-62 HRC, for a razor-sharp edge that lasts and a wave pattern that is different on every blade.

  • Hardness: 60-62 HRC
  • Damascus: 67 layers
Care

Hand wash with warm water and a drop of soap, then dry it right away. Never put it in the dishwasher: the heat and detergent dull the edge and damage the handle.

Hone it every few weeks and use a whetstone a few times a year, depending on how much you cook.

Shipping & returns

Free shipping on every order, tracked with Australia Post. It arrives in 2 to 6 business days.

You have 200 days to return it. Return shipping is on you, unless the knife is defective.

Lifetime warranty

Every Galaxy knife is covered for life against defects in material and workmanship. Something wrong with your blade? Send a photo to info@galaxyknives.com and we sort it out.

Not covered: damage from misuse or the dishwasher.

Why it cuts like this

Built around the steel

Every blade is forged from 67 layers of Damascus steel around a high carbon core, then hardened to 60-62 HRC. That is why it bites into a tomato skin instead of sliding over it, and why it holds its edge long after a supermarket knife has given up.

  • 200days to try it at home

Ask us anything
How do I keep it sharp?

Hand wash your knife and dry it right after use, that alone keeps the edge in shape far longer. Hone it every few weeks and put it on a whetstone a few times a year, depending on how much you cook.

Can it go in the dishwasher?

No. Detergent and heat dull the edge and damage the handle. Hand wash only, then dry it thoroughly.

What does the lifetime warranty cover?

Every Galaxy knife is covered for life against defects in material and workmanship. Something wrong with your blade? Send us a photo and we sort it out.

How fast is shipping?

Shipping is free on every order. It goes out tracked with Australia Post and arrives in 2 to 6 business days. You get a tracking link by email as soon as it leaves.

Can I return it?

Yes. You have 200 days to send it back. Once it arrives in its original condition you get your money back within 14 days. Return shipping is on you, unless the knife is defective. Then we cover it.

Does it arrive gift ready?

Yes. Every knife ships in a gift box, so it is ready to hand over as it is.
