This prep knife is only one option in the incredible Miyabi Black series. It's hard to say which part is the highlight between the black ash wood handle or the MC66 core blade with 132 additional layers of steel creating a damascus pattern. This razor sharp knife provides you with the most delicate thin slices imaginable. A prep knife is one of the most reached for knives in a home kitchen because the cutting tasks do not always require the length and reach of a chef's knife.
This wonderful sized knife is perfect to grab for small jobs, and light prep work. Good knuckle clearance, strong blade shape and good width of blade. The MC 66 Steel is unbelievably strong and nick resistant. Stays sharp a really long time!
A beautiful piece of art. Miyabi Black blades are made from MC66 steel which was actually created in the aerospace industry. The blade is wrapped in 132 additional layers of steel for protection and has a gorgeous Damascus pattern. This blade is razor sharp. The handle of this knife is made out of black ash, each piece has its own unique pattern.
132 layers of sheer beauty and sharpness! This Miyabi Black prep knife is a work of art and function! Miyabi never disappoints and will always handle the task ahead. A prep knife is good for so much - it will become your go-to knife. The Damascus flower pattern is stunning with a rich, black ash handle, is a knife of contradictions in its beauty. This is a real keeper.
This is one of the most beautiful and incredibly sharp knives I've ever used. The 100plus layer Damascus design is stunning. It has a very thin blade, very small edge angle made from one of the hardest steels ever used in kitchen knives. This makes it scalpel-like sharp with amazing edge retention. This is the go-to knife that can handle most kitchen tasks.
This knife is the perfect size for smaller jobs. It has 133 layer of metal with a razor sharp blade that cuts with ease and stays sharp with weekly honing.
I can't believe that you can actually use something every day that looks this beautiful. What an absolute piece of art! The blade is gorgeous with 133 layers and an edge that can cut the thinnest slices imaginable yet feels light in the hand and has a perfect balance. The Black Ash handle is not only stunning but feels great in both a right handed as well as a left handed cook. The shape and size of this knife makes it a great addition to your knife collection. The prep knife can take on all those small projects such as mincing garlic, herbs and shallots. It also works great on small citrus and apples. Has a nice amount of knuckle clearance for maximum cutting performance. enjoy!
