Damascus Santoku Knives & Scissors

Miyabi strives for perfection with Kaizen - Japanese for "improvement" or "change for the better." This line of knives combines the best hardening technology with the artistry of traditional Japanese craftsmanship. The resilient core of VG10 super steel is protected by a stunning 64-layer flower Damascus pattern. The Cryodur blades feature exceptional sharpness and durability thanks to their innovative, ice-hardening treatment. Then, artisans hand-hone the blades with the historic Honbazuke method. This attention to detail translates into precision cutting for Miyabi Kaizen users. The blade is balanced by a refined D-shaped handle made of black linen Micarta. With a wood-like texture, the comfortable handle won't slip from your hand and acts as a moisture repellant. Handcrafted in Seki, Japan.

Master precision chopping with the KitchenAid 5-Inch Damascus Santoku Knife. Designed fir swift slicing and smooth dicing, this knife features a stunning Damascus-patterned blade crafted for lasting sharpness and strength. Perfectly balanced with a comfortable grip, it's a must have for tackling vegetables, proteins and more with the ease and control.

Miyabi 5000 FCD Santoku, 18cm blade length. This Japanese santoku has a hard fine carbide steel core for very good cutting edge retention and sharpness. Santoku translates as "Three Virtues", these being meat, fish, and vegetables. The flat cutting edge lends itself to a chopping motion rather than the rocking cutting movement of European chef's knives. The blade core is surrounded by 48 outer layers of steel which make up the unique Damascus-design pattern on the blade. The cutting edge is Honbazuke-honed and symmetrical (not single bevel), so can be used by those both right and left-handed. There is no finger guard so the whole length of the cutting edge can be used. The handle and half-bolster join seamlessly for comfortable use. The smooth surface helps to prevent the formation of calluses on the thumb and forefinger. Hand wash only for the best care and maintain and sharpen using a whetstone. We’d recommend using a wooden chopping board rather than glass, ceramic, or stone boards as these will dull the cutting edge.

This is my first santoku knife and first miyabi brand knife but man did it impress! It is super sharp out of the box. Its lightweight but making cutting a breeze!. Eryka. Fri Oct 16 2020
