Description

Miyabi celebrates Japanese craftsmanship with Mizu. Using traditional methods and innovative techniques, these knives merge the past and present into one exceptional knife collection. The SG2 micro-carbide powder stainless steel core is wrapped in another layer of stainless steel with a hammered ("Tsuchime") Damascus finish. The Cryodur heat treatment process results in a blade with a high Rockwell Hardness rating of 63, providing superior edge retention, corrosion resistance and blade flexibility. Miyabi artisans then perform the Honbazuke sharpening method that originated from traditional Japanese sword making. This 3-step process includes sharpening the blades twice on whetstones, followed by mirror polishing on a leather wheel. Used over 1000 years ago for samurai swords, this is what gives these knives their signature Miyabi razor sharpness. The meticulously crafted blade is then accompanied by a stunning, comfortable and durable D-shaped Micarta handle and stainless steel bolster. Beautiful accents adorn the handle including a decorative mosaic pin, red spacers, the Miyabi logo engraved on the handle end. Handcrafted in Seki, Japan.

Beautiful Piece of Cutlery
Size: 8"
Original review 4/11/26 - I have had Shun knives for a very long time and decided to get my first Miyabi with this 8" Chef. I was so excited to receive the package and right off the bat I immediately notice the dent in the spine right above the bolster which caused the blade to be slightly leaning crooked. For a knife at this price point, I wasn't expecting any defects like this. The edges of the blade were also very rough and unfinished along the entire spine up to the bolster and down to the heel. Otherwise, the blade was very high quality SG2 and sharp. The handle was superb and flawless. The knife felt well balanced and very comfortable in the hand, I was very sad to see the dent and wonder if this knife even passed quality control. I will try a replacement to see if next knife lives up to the quality that Miyabi is known for. Update as of 04/14/26 - replacement knife arrived from Cutlery and More. The knife is spectacular! No flaws on the knife that I could see - the blade is straight and sharp, handle is superb. There are several reviews stating what I experienced in my original review regarding the blade defects, but this is something that will happen with hand hammered blades. Statistically, there will always be a small percentage of handmade products that will have defects. I'm very delighted that this replacement exceeded expectations. This is a high quality knife and I will add more Miyabi products in the future. ... show more

Highly Functional Art
Size: 8"
You can buy more expensive knives but this is a premium knife, made of premium materials, assembled with superior craftsmanship. Use it like a knife (not an ice pick or cleaver) and it will provide excellent performance for years to come. Weight and balance are fantastic. It's an 8" light saber. Very happy with this purchase. ... show more

What can I say?
Size: 8"
Wow this knife is a lot different then the old Cutco chef's knife I have been using for years. After getting a gift card for my Bday I decided to take the plunge on a real knife. I consider myself a pretty good cook and enjoy making meals for family and friends. I figured if I am using it everyday it would be well worth every penny and it has been for sure. The blade is well balanced and the steel is hard as hell so it retains an edge like no other stainless blade can. When it hits the cutting board the sound of it even sounds different then typical stainless steel. I really look forward to meals that require a lot of vegetable prep. Trimming cuts of meat is super easy- the blade slides right through with no resistance. It even looks cool laying on the cutting board! Just be careful- I almost took off the tip of my index finger the first night I used it. You have to adapt your holding technique if you are used to using semi dull knives. Perfect size and blade length for most work you will do in the kitchen on a daily basis. A pure pleasure in the kitchen for sure, maybe even an heirloom for the kids... Even bought a whetstone to keep it sharp. Just make sure to practice on your old knives before using on your new beauty. Expensive but worth it! ... show more

Exceptional quality and sharpness
Size: 6"
Exceptional quality and extremely sharp. These are for serious cooks who take care of their utensils. Enjoy cooking and get ready to appreciate Japanese knives. Just be extremely careful and do not let kids or teenagers use these. Razor sharp . Hope this helps. Also, they look amazing !!!!! Well worth the price. Don’t forget that this knife can chip if you are not careful. It has a very thin blade so it makes sense if you drop it or try and shop frozen items. ... show more
