Miyabi Artisan 8" Chef's Knife
MIYABI celebrates Japanese craftsmanship with the Artisan line through traditional methods and innovative techniques. These impressive culinary tools merge the past and present into an exceptional knife collection. The Artisan Series boasts a potent core of SG2 micro-carbide powder steel - rated at a stunning 63 Rockwell hardness - layered with a traditional Tsuchime finish. This exquisite, hand-hammered effect helps prevent food from sticking. The CRYODUR® blades feature exceptional sharpness and durability thanks to their innovative, ice-hardening treatment. Each knife features a hand-honed blade finished with a true katana edge, a homage to the samurai swords made in Seki centuries ago. Crafted with special Cocobolo Rosewood Pakkawood, the handles mirror the beauty of the blade. Sophisticated details include brass and red spacers, a mosaic pin and a stainless-steel end cap. The attractive D-shaped handle is designed to nestle comfortably in your hand for tireless cutting. The Miyabi Artisan 8" Chef's Knife is handcrafted in Seki, Japan and carries the manufacturer's lifetime warranty.
