[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have been eyeing this knife for a long time and so far it hasn’t disappointed me! It’s incredibly sharp, light, well balanced and gorgeous to look at.
More than a superb knife, it is a statement of Japanese culture blending art with high technology to create a piece that pleases artistically and functionally.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Received this knife as a replacement for an older knife that was unfortunately damaged and no longer in stock, as with my original Miyabi I couldn't be happier with the quality of the blade. Beautiful piece that I would recommend to anyone.
Back of blade lands pretty flat. Not much rock. Better for the push cut style I learned on my 2001 Swilling Henkel. Also fantastic for straight up/down quick chopping due to the light but strong blade.
Handle fits my hand nicely. Still not sure if I should oil it. Many Birchwood owners leave it alone, making sure to dry it after using.
Easy on the eyes and easy grip for small hands. So pleased with this sexy counter-top addition. Looking forward to treating these right for many years to come!
This is a great knife. Our first professional Japanese knife purchase and we love the light weight. The handle feels great in both my husband and my hands. The knife was sharp out of the box. This is the start to our Miyabi collection. Very happy we purchased.
