[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I picked this knife up and couldn’t be happier. I’ve always used lower queasily knives and now I can never go back.
Beef, sushi, pork shoulder...nothing too tough for this one. Best Japanese SG2 steel starts and stays sharp. 100 wraps for stability and Damascus pattern brilliance.
This is the top of the line Japanese slicer that you need! It slices with ease without shredding to keep the food how you want it. Not to mention, it has a beautiful design that you will want to show off. The handle itself, is very comfortable and the Birchwood is great for making sure the knife is not slipping in your hand.
The perfect slicing knife is sharp enough to cleanly slice through any meat or fish without tearing or changing the texture. This is that perfect knife. Scapel-like blade with its beautiful damascus design will not only slice cleanly but will hold its edge incredibly well.
The birchwood handle is so unique. It is very comfortable with its traditional Asian D shape plus the birchwood material makes it very slip resistant. I love how the handle will become very personal as it absorbs oils from your hands and develops its own personality.
If you want an authentic Japanese knife, end your search with Miyabi. They are made and sold in Japan as the premium knife.
