Best Slicer is the best I've ever used, I cannot believe how easily this knife cuts! if I didn't know better I'd say it was a razor because its razor sharp, razor thin and cuts like a razor! the lovely damascus pattern serves to make this incredibly sharp knife incredibly sharp in appearance as well!
The slicing knife is probably one of the sharpest you will own. I love using this to slice. It's high quality steel makes for a sharp yet durable blade. Additionally, it is a beautiful knife to look at.
This is one of those knives that you get so excited to use you just might find yourself cooking roasts or fajitas just to have an excuse to pull it out. The core is made from FC61 steel and is wrapped in 48 additional layers for strength and beauty in the damscus pattern. FC61 steel is exceptionally hard so the cutting edge stays razor sharp use after use. The handle is a traditional Japanese D shaped handle which is comfortable, . This is not just for meat...I love to pull it out for birthday cake too!
So much beauty and function in this Miyabi Japanese knife! Once you start to use Miyabi knives, there is no turning back! The 48 layers of Damascus flower pattern is a work of art and the blade stays sharp and durable for those years of cutting, slicing for major tasks.
You cannot get any better than the Kaizen II slicing knife. It has the scalpel-like sharp blade that will give you the thinnest slice you ever thought possible. Now it is made with a new type of steel, FC61, that is incredibly durable and chip resistant. It takes away all of the fear of damaging your true Japanese knife.
It is incredibly beautiful with the layered Damascus blade. And the traditional Japanese handle fits perfectly in the palm of your hand, has the look and feel of wood, but the durability of a synthetic material.
Easy to see why Miyabi knives are made and sold in Japan as premium knives too.
This slicer is stunning! The blade is very sharp and thin. The handle is good for left or right hands. Use this knife for thin cuts of meat, or slicing melons and vegetables. Also it’s a fantastic Sushi knife
Beautiful knife made from Fine Carbide steel (FC61) with 48 layers of Damascus surrounding the core. Each knife is unique, durable and individually balanced. This knife slices into meat with ease, one stroke is all it takes and the cut is super smooth. Great for slicing very thin strips of raw meat and veggies.
