[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Very sharp and balanced santoku, complements my chefs knife perfectly. Applied mineral oil and Boos board cream, which brings out color and detail of the handle.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I cook mostly asian food and this santoku serves the purpose and cuts almost everything that I needed cut. Great quality and excellent craftsmanship! I cannot get a better knife anywhere else other than Miyabi.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My husband gave me a set of Miyabi knives for our 11th anniversary. I love them! They are so beautifully crafted. I couldn't wait to test one out. I was not disappointed!
This knife was a gift from my daughter in law. She is a professional chef so she knows how to pick out a perfect knife. Love the Santoku style which is a bit lighter than the chef's knife and also sharper. Use it everyday for just about everything in the kitchen. The beautiful damascus style blade is razor sharp, and glides through everything. I use it for cutting, chopping, mincing and paper thin slicing.
I love the Birchwood line. The Japanese artistry and craftsmanship is present from one end to the other. The handle is a unique piece of wood with each one being a one of a kind. The more I use the knife the more beautiful it gets. The blade is beautifully layered with high carbon steel that is sharp like a razor and is very easy to maintain. All of the marks of high quality cutlery come with this knife. I love the santoku shape for all of my chopping and vegetable prep.
Like a classic knife from the past, this beauty is fantastic. Best of Japanese steel (SG2 Carbide)..a comfortable real birchwood handle and one hundred wraps for stability and Damascus beauty.
I love to use this knife for my vegetable cuts. It is very sharp and I never have to worry about cutting through them. The handle also has a non slip grip, so it stays in place easily.
This santoku has scalpel like sharpness. It makes chopping and slicing a breeze. Many people end up preferring it over a chef knife.
The birchwood handle is so unique. It is very comfortable with its traditional Asian D shape plus the birchwood material makes it very slip resistant. I love how the handle will become very personal as it absorbs oils from your hands and develops its own personality.
The 100 layer damascus blade is made from a very sharp SG2 steel core that not only makes it very durable but incredibly beautiful.
If you want an authentic Japanese knife, end your search with Miyabi. They are made and sold in Japan as the premium knife.
