You cannot get more top-of-the-line than this beautiful piece of art and design. Beautifully crafted in Seki, Japan, you will not want to own another knife after using this one. For Chefs & at-home Chefs, the look and feel of this in your hand will amaze. Use it once & no looking back! The damascus design is as beautiful as the birch handle.
This chef knife is so beautiful with it's damascus blade and birchwood handle. It makes you want to place it on a shelf to admire, but once you cut with it, you are even more blown away. It has that incredibly sharp Japanese angle that will handle any delicate task. The birchwood handle is darkening slightly from the oil in my hands which makes it even more beautiful and unique. Miyabi knives are worth the investment.
This is one of the most beautiful Japanese knives I have ever used. Miyabi has out done themselves with this beauty. The balance is perfect and super comfortable to hold. The best part though, this knife has scalpel-like sharpness and it retains the sharpness for a long time. Very agile and ideal if you need to do some precise cutting. The Damascus layering is simply stunning to look at! One of my all-time favorite chef's knives.
It is beautiful, it is light, it is sharp and comfortable in your hand. Blade features a Katana edge, hand-honed using the traditional 3-step Japanese Honbazuke method. 5000MCD, Cryodur ice-hardened; 63 Rockwell hardness. But please, do not put them in your dishwasher, any Miyabi knife does not deserve to be in there. It need proper TLC!
I have serveral Miyabi knives but this has to be one of my favorites. Not only is it a show stopper because of it's beautiful craftmanship this knife is a joy to cut with! The birchwood handle feels great in my hand and has taken on a gorgeous petina with time. Julia Child would be in love.
I love this knife. The blade is beautiful, with 100 layers of steel, it is an amazing piece of art, and it cuts so smoothly, like butter. The birchwood handle feels so nice in hand, and looks perfect with the blade. Miyabi makes wonder and durable Japanese knives, definitely one of the best chef knives on the market.
