This utility knife is a nice extention of the paring knife. Designed for small cutting projects with knife will easily peel, pare, mince and dice small fruit and veggies. Very approachable, easy to care for and familiar in the hand. Made from superior FC61 stainless steel this knife is more chip and corrosion resistant than most Asian steels and will hold its acute edge angle longer as well. The POM handle is smooth and feels secure even when wet.
Japanese edge angle and symmetrical handle. The size permits using for medium-size cutting tasks like a larger paring knife, while being more maneuverable than a larger chef's knife. Contoured handle and well rounded heel of blade and spine add to effortless cutting.
This s a terrific knife if you prefer to hold a fruit or vegetable in your hand when cutting. The narrower blade gives a lot of flexibility as you move the food as you cut. If that isn't your cutting style, this is an excellent knife for slicing fruits, peeling melon.
I gave an Evolution to my cousin and his wife since they were looking to start using 'grown up tools' in their kitchen. The kids were old enough and they just decided it was time. He thanks me every time we see each other, and occasionally I get pictures of something they have cooked.
This is that kind of knife, it inspires love and cooking creativity. It is a hybrid of Japanese and German knife making tradition. The handle is a perfect example. It is a little heavier like a German knife, but a little narrower like a Japanese knife. The steel that the blade is made of is German and the craftsmanship is Japanese. The combination is a hard durable blade that stays sharp for a long time. Hone it regularly and sharpen maybe once a year; you'll have it forever. Dishwasher safe, but hand wash to retain the beauty and look of new.
This is a great knife to expand into the world of Miyabi. Held out to be their entry line..it is anything but that. Skillfully crafted by many artisan, smooth finish, simply beautiful. This is a super steel blade that is incredibly sharp, hard and resilient. Use this for slicing longer vegetables and fruits. Perfect for eggplant, summer squash and potatoes.
Amazing knife! Narrow blade makes it easy to maneuver and great for small tasks. It's super sharp. The curved handle with the rivets, feels like a western knife in your hand, but the lighter weight reminds you it's a Japanese knife.
Durable, sharp and versatile are just a few words to describe this excellent Evolution utility knife. With a comfortable handle and strong blade, this knife will become a go-to in the kitchen.
This is a great Japanese small utility knife. I really like the feel of the handle on this blade, it’s very comfortable and contours nicely. The blade has a nice lighter weight to it, but is very sharp. This is a great knife collection if you want to go from Western style knives to Asian. With the Evolution, it brings the two styles together with the German proprietary ice hardening technique of the FC61 steel, making it a much more durable Japanese knife. This is a really great smaller blade knife for slicing fruit and veggies with ease.
