[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Not our first Miyabi. It is hard to spend a lot of money on cutlery but every now and then the right ones come along. We have purchased sets of other well know companies and understand the Miyabi is part of a major brand but we like the details and sharpness of this series. The blade performs well and holds an edge while the handle looks more modern and feels good in the hand.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Terrific knife! Feels great in the hand and balanced. Razor sharp out of the box and very good looking in the kitchen.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It’s handled easily by all cooks in the house. Sturdy. We love it for all foods-potatoe, tomatoe, all raw veggies, apples
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Perfect when the big Chef’s knife Is too big, the paring knife is too small. Quickly becoming my “go to” knife for small prep jobs. Which is all the time!! Feels great in the hand.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] For those jobs where a big Chef’s knife is too large, and a paring knife is too small. Feels so good in the hand. Quickly becoming my “go to” for small prep jobs.
This knife is the perfect size. Its bigger than a paring knife and smaller than my Chefs knife. I like that the handle is offset unlike a paring knife to allow easy use on a cutting board. The handle is very comfortable and nicely rounded. I like that it is a hybrid of both Western and Japanese cutlery bringing out the best of both. The blade is very sharp and the acute angle means thin accurate cuts and slices. The blade goes through a double hardening process to ensure a very durable and sharp blade that is easy to maintain.
The Miyabi Evolution line is one of my favorite and the prep knife is one of my most used knives in the kitchen. It is super sharp so can slice, dice, and chop with percision and it feels comfortable in my hand while using, which is very important.
