This beautiful Japanese birchwood knife is simply beautiful and of the highest quality. It truly is scapel-like sharp! It cuts like the quality that it is, and the Birchwood handle is provides a no slip grip. Who wouldn't want to cut with a piece of art?
I recieved this beautiful paring knife from my husband, He knows that i love to make a game of peeling an apple in one log strand like my mother did. It's one on my Zen moments. He thought it would be nice to have a knife that would make that job easy and beautiful. like my memories. Although my mom used a cheap knife from woolworths, I know she would be happy to try this one, it cuts so smoothly and effortlessly, it makes my Zen moment even more important.
Lets face it...any job is more fun when the tools are also a work of art! This is one of those most used and most loved knives in a kitchen so go ahead and splurge on this super sharp Miyabi Birchwood paring knife! Made from SG2 steel which is the highest quality steel you can be confident this knife will retain its razor sharp edge use after use. The Birchwood handle has a comfortable no slip grip.
Birchwood is such an incredibly beautiful knife and so much more. It's made from a super hard steel, SG2, which means it will have amazing edge retention and be easy to sharpen. True to it's Japanese heritage, it has a scalpel-like sharp blade. I love how the birchwood handle will develop personal characteristics over time.
Not only is the knife absolutely gorgeous it is so sharp it makes those little pesky paring jobs a dream to do. Also works really well for decorative work such as radish roses.
It is beautiful, it is light, it is sharp, perfect for cutting fruit and comfortable in your hand. Blade features a Katana edge, hand-honed using the traditional 3-step Japanese Honbazuke method. 5000MCD, Cryodur ice-hardened; 63 Rockwell hardness. But please, do not put them in your dishwasher, any Miyabi knife does not deserve to be in there. It need proper TLC!
