[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Just wow. This Miyabi Black Santoku is just incredible - such a piece of art. I already use it as much as I can and it is just pure bliss.
It is good, it dose it's job and is really sharp. The only thing I was kind of disappointing was my knife was not as sharp as i though but it is way sharper then all the other knives that I had.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Beautiful looking knife that is extremely sharp out of the box. My first Japanese knife and I now understand the other comments about being able to thinly slice foood
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] the knife itself is gorgeous, sharp (did the paper & tomato test) and feels well balanced. sadly, the knife was not properly set in the foam in the box and cut through the end. i cut myself pulling the box out of the actual shipping box because i couldn’t see the edge of the blade. but hey, obviously the edge is sharp and solid! cant wait to get cooking.
This is a one of a kind knife. Made in Seki Japan, boasts 133 layers of damascus in a floral design pattern. The MC66 steel, has a Rockwell of 66 which keeps the edge nice and sharp, and is extremely easy to resharpen. The D shaped black ash handle adds to the authentic Japanese design and keeps with tradition. The 5.5" santoku is easy to handle, and can be used for a variety of different functions in the kitchen. This is my go to knife and use it on a daily basis for just about everything. Money well spent!
Truly a one of a kind knife. Black Ash handle and 130 layers of Damascus make for a stunning presentation. MC66 steel extremely hard makes for perfect edge, sharp as a surgeons scalpel. Nice weight, perfectly balanced, makes working in the kitchen fun. Never enjoyed using a knife as much as this one. Beauty and function in the Miyabi Black.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Like any Miyabi or Zwilling knife the care and thought put into the development and creation of their knives is second to none in my opinion. The aesthetics of the knife is only surpassed by exceptional performance. A great addition to my growing collection of Miyabi knives!
