MIYABI Mizu SG2 5 Utility Knife

Crafted in Seki, Japan, the Miyabi Mizu SG2 Utility Knife celebrates the art of Japanese craftsmanship. This exceptional knife collection merges traditional methods and innovative techniques, blending the past and present. The SG2 micro-carbide powder stainless steel core is wrapped in another layer of stainless steel, featuring a hammered ("Tsuchime") Damascus finish.

The Cryodur heat treatment process results in a blade with a high Rockwell Hardness rating of 63, ensuring superior edge retention, corrosion resistance, and blade flexibility. Miyabi artisans then employ the traditional Honbazuke sharpening method, which originated from the art of Japanese sword making. This 3-step process involves sharpening the blades twice on whetstones, followed by a mirror polish on a leather wheel. This centuries-old technique is what gives these knives their signature Miyabi razor sharpness.

The meticulously crafted blade is complemented by a stunning, comfortable, and durable D-shaped Micarta handle, accompanied by a stainless steel bolster. Decorative accents adorn the handle, including a mosaic pin, red spacers, and the Miyabi logo engraved on the end.
