The Miyabi Black 5000MCD Gyotoh knife is a true work of art, designed for both beauty and performance. The blade is crafted from micro-carbide powdered MC66 steel, ice-hardened to an impressive 66 HRC, resulting in a razor-sharp and durable edge that maintains its sharpness over time. It is enveloped in 132 layers of steel, forming a stunning flower Damascus pattern that is as visually striking as it is functional. The handle is made from distinctive black ash wood, its unique grain and color creating a beautiful contrast against the intricate Damascus blade. Designed in a traditional "D" shape, the handle ensures optimal ergonomics, offering a comfortable, fatigue-free experience during extended use in the kitchen. Handcrafted in Seki, Japan, the Miyabi Black 5000MCD Gyotoh knife embodies the artistry and precision of Japanese knife-making at its finest.
