I gave this to my wife as a birthday gift, she said this knife 1. well balance 2. So Sharp that it become so easy when she cut meat, also each slice can be so thin. 3. Easy to clean. She love this so much and she is getting another one.
The knife is capable of cutting most things, however, not really the ideal tool to make detailed knife work on ingredients. I would prefer the knife to be a bit sharper for easier maneuvering for things like super thin slices and precision cutting.
The knife is really sharp and well balanced but it has rust rings on it after just a week. I hand washed and dried it. Waiting on a response from customer service.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Very well built knife and great for e price. I just recently noticed some tarnishes even though I washed with hands and dried immediately.
Love my Miyabi Koh chef's knife. Made in Seki Japan, the home of the best Japanese knives. The steel is unique to Miyabi and is not only high on the Rockwell scale, but the carbons in the steel are so fine, that it is almost impossible to damage the blade. The razor edge blade is as sharp as a surgeon's scalpel, very easy to sharpen and maintain. Love the handle design which allows my left handed boyfriend to use with comfort and ease. Affordable and enjoyable!
