This set has such a great price for two of the most used knives in a kitchen. If you're looking to invest in an amazing Japanese knife this is a good choice. The six inch chef's knife is a nice size for most cutting tasks and a paring knife is the one you reach for for everything small. Both are incredible sharp because of the SG2 steel core which is capable of being honed to a 9.5 to 12 degree angle. The strength of the blade is due to the ice hardening process so these will stay sharp longer and resist chipping and cracking.
These 2 knives will do about 80-90% of your kitchen work! They cover so much of the cutting. paring, slicing and chopping, and feel great in your hand. I love the curve of this handle and the hammered blade doesn't allow the food to stick! The brass and red details give this knife its beauty. Perfect wedding gift!
A parer and a chef knife will take care of most of your cutting, and a 6" chef knife is preferred by many who consider the 8" chef too large to handle.
Artisan is a thing of beauty! The first attraction for me is the "hammered" blade; it's such a unique finish but it's also going to help keep food from sticking to the blade. The SG2 steel is very hard which guarantees it will have amazing edge retention. It also boasts that crazy sharp Asian edge angle.
The rosewood handle has a nice round curve which fits very comfortably in your hand. If you want an authentic Japanese knife, end your search with Miyabi. They are made and sold in Japan as the premium knife.
I purchased the 8” for my husband and I, he found it too big for him. So, for Father’s Day he got this set. He loved them so much, that we are building a set now!
Really beautiful starter set for those interested in starting an Asian knife collection. The hand hammering on the blade is really stunning and makes food fall off the blade easily. D shaped handle feels smooth and secure and balanced in either the left or the right hand. Keeps its sharp edge for many uses with proper handling and occasional sharpening.
Japanese cutlery set with hammered finished blade and rosewood handle. The blade's surface prevents food from sticking and has an acute edge angle for scalpel-like sharpness. Handle shape is incredibly comfortable providing effortless cutting. Excellent value!
I liked this 2pc. Miyabi Artisan set, two great knife to have. An 8" chef are great for cutting large food, chunk of meat & vegetables, and fruit. It's the easiest grab and go knives, my go-to knife and so sharp to cut food for It's potent core of SG2 micro-carbide powder steel is layered in a Tsuchime finish. The Hand-hammered effect helps prevent food from sticking, and add layers of durability. Handle is so comfortable in my hand and love that D shape handle fabricated with special Cocobolo Rosewood pakkawood.
