[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have a shun brisket carver that’s really mostly just got for brisket. This knife has great balance, is super sharp, and a joy to use for sashimi, carving meat, etc. very happy to add this to my knife collection. It looks great too!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The hexagonal handle makes this knife feel comfortable and secure in my hands. Carving and slicing is a breeze; no more hack jobs! I don't know why I waited so long to purchase such a well made knife. It is a pleasure to use.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Beautiful knife and amazing manufacture. This Miyabi evolution slicer will be my go to slicer for years to come. Can’t waiting to use it again! Effortless cutting and slicing meats! Thank you Miyabi for such an elegant functional piece.
The Miyabi Koh is made in Japan with FC61 steel which is razor sharp and and extremely durable despite not having a Damascus outer layer. This particular steel does not need wrapping, which brings production costs down, without compromising the edge retention and sharpness. Handcrafted in Seki Japan, has all the bells and whistles Japans knives are known for, without the high price tag. Love the way this slicer glides through roasts, chicken, and turkey, making even, thin slices easy to achieve. A real game changer!
I am very happy with this slicer. The handle is lightweight and comfortable to hold. I like the unique hexagonal shape to the handle. It is slightly longer than the typical slicer and that extra length makes it even more versatile. The blade is very sharp and easy to maintain.The bade goes through a double hardening process making a blade that is very thin and durable. The traditional Japanese techniques used in making this knife produce a superior item.
It feels like a razor-sharp sword when slicing...been trying to find one like this. In addition, a pakkawood wood handle that everyone seems to enjoy..
Out of all the Miyabi knives, this one really shows the history of the Miyabi company that started by creating beautiful katana swords for samuri with it long blade that has beautiful details and the unique handle that is octagonal in shape that is very comfortable to use.
The Miyabi Koh line is an Japanese cutlery line that offers the benefits of a German style knife. A more forgiving steel that can be sharpened or honed easily and a Handle that will accomodate a left handed person as well as a right handed person with the same degree of comfort.
