Miyabi celebrates Japanese craftsmanship with the Mizu SG2 Paring Knife, a testament to both traditional techniques and modern innovation. These knives seamlessly blend heritage and contemporary excellence into a distinguished collection.
At the heart of each knife lies a core of SG2 micro-carbide powder stainless steel, encased in layers of stainless steel featuring a distinctive hammered ("Tsuchime") Damascus finish. The Cryodur heat treatment process, which involves ice-hardening, achieves a remarkable Rockwell Hardness rating of 63. This results in exceptional edge retention, superb flexibility, and heightened resistance to corrosion.
Following this meticulous crafting, Miyabi artisans employ the Honbazuke sharpening method—a tradition originating from Japanese swordsmithing. This rigorous 3-step process begins with dual sharpening on whetstones, culminating in mirror polishing on a leather wheel. Originating over a millennium ago for samurai swords, this technique imparts the signature Miyabi razor sharpness to each blade.
The meticulously forged blade is complemented by a D-shaped Micarta handle, renowned for its durability, comfort, and aesthetic appeal. Featuring a stainless steel bolster and embellished with intricate details including a decorative mosaic pin, red spacers, and the Miyabi logo engraved on the handle end, the handle ensures perfect balance and a secure grip.
Handcrafted in Seki, Japan—a locale renowned for its centuries-old tradition of blade-making—the Mizu SG2 Paring Knife exemplifies excellence. The knife is not just a tool but a work of art, embodying precision, durability, and beauty in every detail.
