MIYABI Chef's Knife

MIYABI celebrates Japanese craftsmanship with Artisan, a collection of exceptional knives that merge the past and present through the use of traditional methods and innovative techniques. Fabricated in Seki, Japan, these knives feature a potent core of SG2 micro-carbide powder steel, layered in a Tsuchime finish - an exquisite, hand-hammered effect that helps prevent food from sticking.

Each knife boasts a hand-honed blade finished with a true katana edge, a homage to the samurai swords made in Seki centuries ago. The handles, crafted from special Cocobolo Rosewood pakkawood, mirror the beauty of the blade, with sophisticated details including brass and red spacers, a mosaic pin, and a stainless steel end cap. The attractive D-shaped handle is designed to nestle comfortably in the user's hand for tireless cutting.

The authentic thin Japanese blade profile, combined with the three-step Honbazuke process used for sharpening, results in a 9.5 to 12 degree edge, ensuring exceptional performance and precision. This SG2 micro-carbide powder steel, known for its exceptional hardness and edge retention, is the core of these knives, providing a potent and durable cutting edge.

Handcrafted with meticulous attention to detail, the MIYABI Artisan knives seamlessly blend traditional Japanese craftsmanship with modern innovation, creating a remarkable collection that celebrates the enduring legacy of Japanese blade-making. From the hand-hammered Tsuchime finish to the katana-inspired edge, each element of these knives has been carefully considered to deliver an exceptional culinary experience.

The MIYABI Artisan collection is a testament to the enduring spirit of Japanese craftsmanship, where the artisanal techniques of the past are reinterpreted through the lens of modern innovation. These knives are not merely tools, but works of art that embody the rich heritage and mastery of Japanese blade-making, making them a true celebration of the country's enduring artistry.
