fantastic bread knife

This is a well crafted bread knife. The blade is made from super hard high carbon steel that is both durable and thin. The acute angle of the blade and the shape of the serration gives straight accurate slices. The Damascus pattern shows the artistry put into each knife. The handle is slightly thicker than traditional Japanese handles and is very comfortable to hold.
Fantastic product but the packaging leaves a lot to desire for. Each item was packed in an individual box too big for the item, and shipped separately. I received 4 big boxes for 4 very small items. Cdve all easily ft into one box.
This beautiful Kaizen 2 9.5 inch bread knife is made from high quality FC61 steel. This helps ensure the blade is not only scalpel-like sharp, but also be durable. It is a great knife for cutting all types of breads, and has a long enough blade for larger pieces too.
Kaizen knives are made with a core of FC61 steel so they retain their sharp cutting edge longer than other knives. This serrated edge bread knife will provide a lifetime of effortless slicing. The serration is designed to cut through the crusty exterior and then proceed through without tearing the softer interior. It has a gorgeous damascus pattern created by applying 48 additional layers of steel to the core. The traditional Japanese handle has a comfortable curved feel in your hand.
This is a beautiful line and if you are buying your knives in the collection individually, you need a bread knife. It is one of the often used knives in my household and I since I serve bread with every meal at the table, I want a great bread knife to put out as well. The serration on this is fantastic and glides through your artisan breads like butter! Some serrations tear the bread, which makes a huge mess, but the serration on this kinife is sharp and perfect. Cuts a perfect slice every time.
Miyabi knives are quality-driven knives and the Kaizen II series is stunning with the Damascus design and black pakkawood handle. With the 48 layers of steel plus the core, it adds up to one beautiful knife, that is sharp, durable and will not rust. Use this serrated knife for unsliced loaves of bread, rolls, sandwiches that need cut, or your summer tomatoes. Ice-hardened, so you can feel the quality and strength of the steel.
