The beauty of this knife takes my breath away. The Damascus cladding is lovely, and the handle is out-of-this-world stunning. The attention to detail is impressive: fit and finish is perfect, and it is extremely sharp right out of the box. In short, this knife is both a joy to look at and to use.
Amazing chef's knife! I am so glad I made this choice. A balanced mix between German and Japanese knife construction. The edge is so sharp out of box, the handle makes it comfortable to use and the balance is perfect. Highly recommend for those serious about their knife game.
While I have several other fine knives the 6” Miyabi birchwood has now become my favorite as my most purpose knife. I’ve only had it for a few weeks and often find myself reaching first for another but then recall and retrieve my new Miyabi. I’m still impressed with its feel and sharpness. This will be my last knife and holds top choice now.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This knife is the perfect length for me - shorter than a standard chef's knife, yet gets the task done. Don't let the shorter, less-menacing length fool you, though, as this knife is SHARP. I recommend storing this in a safe place when not in use. I keep it in the original box, but I'm looking at getting a storage roll bag.
