MIYABI Mizu SG2 7-Piece Knife Set with Bamboo Block

The Miyabi Mizu SG2 knives start with the Tsuchime method, a three-layer construction of SG2 steel with a hammered finish to prevent food from sticking to the blade. The Honbazuke process then involves an ancient three-step sharpening technique, where the Katana edge is sharpened twice on whetstones and then mirror-polished on a leather wheel. This process, used for over 1000 years on samurai swords, creates unparalleled sharpness.

The Criodur process enhances the steel's hardness, flexibility, and corrosion resistance, ensuring outstanding performance. The blades are hand-honed at the traditional Japanese angle of 9 to 12 degrees on each side, resulting in a scalpel-like sharpness. The stunning and durable D-shape Micarta handles feature a mosaic pin, red spacers, and a metal end-cap with a logo, providing balance and aesthetic appeal.

Handcrafted in Seki, Japan, these knives come with a lifetime warranty. The set includes a 3.5-inch paring knife, a 5.5-inch utility/prep knife, an 8-inch chef's knife, a 9.5-inch bread knife, a 9-inch tungsten sharpening steel, a 10-slot bamboo knife block, and kitchen shears.

The Miyabi Mizu SG2 knives are constructed with micro-carbide powder steel SG2, with a hammered stainless steel Damascus textured finish surrounding the core. The 63 Rockwell hardness, achieved through the special Criodur ice-hardening process, maximizes the steel's properties, ensuring exceptional performance and durability.
