How to choose
A Nakiri or vegetable-focused knife gives clean board contact and direct control. It is useful when vegetables are not a side task but a regular part of cooking.
Vegetable knives depend on a stable board and a straight, controlled cut. If the board is poor, the knife will never feel as clean as it should.
If you want one knife for everything, Santoku may be safer. If vegetables are the priority, Nakiri gives a more intentional result.
