The 8" Chef's knife is designed for precision when cutting and separating fish or meat. Its pointed tip and sturdy blade ensure clean, effortless cuts, while the flat-finished handle enhances safety by preventing your hand from slipping onto the blade. Crafted with a traditional Japanese blade profile, this knife delivers exceptional cutting performance combined with a comfortable grip. At its core, the blade features micro-carbide powder steel, wrapped in two additional layers of steel. The hammer-forged finish gives it a striking texture reminiscent of the Tschumine design. Each blade in the MIYABI 600MCT series undergoes a rigorous ice-hardening process at -196°C, achieving an impressive hardness of approximately 63 Rockwell. The blade is polished on both sides and meticulously finished by hand using Honbazuke honing for superior sharpness. The handle is made from pakkawood, known for its subtle pattern, durability, and flexibility. Designed for perfect balance, it provides a comfortable grip, allowing for fatigue-free use. Combining elegance with functionality, this Miyabi knife is a versatile and essential tool for any kitchen.
