MIYABI Artisan 8-inch Chef's Knife, Made in Japan

MIYABI's Artisan collection celebrates the art of Japanese craftsmanship by merging traditional methods with innovative techniques. The knives in this exceptional collection feature a potent core of SG2 micro-carbide powder steel, which is 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, paying homage to the samurai swords crafted in Seki centuries ago. Fabricated with special Cocobolo Rosewood pakkawood, the handles mirror the beauty of the blade, showcasing sophisticated details such as 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, allowing for tireless cutting. These handcrafted knives, made in Seki, Japan, feature an authentic thin Japanese blade profile and are hand-honed using the three-step Honbazuke process, resulting in a 9.5 to 12 degree edge.

By blending the past and present, MIYABI's Artisan collection celebrates the rich heritage of Japanese craftsmanship, offering a exceptional knife collection that combines traditional techniques with innovative design. The use of SG2 micro-carbide powder steel and the meticulous hand-honing process ensure that each knife in the Artisan collection delivers unparalleled performance and precision, making it a must-have for discerning home cooks and professional chefs alike.
