Wicked Sharp
on January 12, 2026
Posted by: happy camper 08
Frequency of use:Daily
This is my first Japanese steel knife and it is amazingly sharp. I can cut paper-thin slices off a tomato, and cut anything with extreme ease. This is awesome and I highly recommend upgrading to these if you can afford it if you cook with any regularity. They also look really cool and everyone who comes over asks about them, so i wish i had a better backstory than that i bought them on the internet.
I would recommend this to a friend!

We were gifted this knife, along with the Miyabi pairing knife, and the Miyabi Santoku. They have been awesome! We apparently are also getting a free gift by leaving this review!

Beautiful Blade, New Favorite Knife
on January 24, 2026
Posted by: Anonymous
I had been using a quality MAC chef's knife for years, and my new Miyabi Kaizen II absolutely blows it out of the water! The handle and balance are perfect for my hand, and the blade is razor-sharp, making easy work of even the toughest produce. It has been a joy to do prep work with this beautiful knife. I will undoubtedly be purchasing more Miyabi knives in the future!

Great knife

The Miyabi Kaizen chef knife is incredibly sharp right out of the box and stays that way far longer than any knife I’ve owned. It’s lightweight, perfectly balanced, and makes slicing effortless. The Damascus finish is beautiful, and the handle feels great in hand. Definitely a premium knife that’s worth it if you cook regularly.
I would recommend this to a friend!
