Miyabi Kaizen Paring Knife
Surgical Precision for Off-Board Prep: The Miyabi Kaizen 3.5" Paring Knife When navigating the tight radii of a shallot or the fibrous skin of a ginger root, mass-produced knives often feel clumsy. The Miyabi Kaizen 3.5" (90mm) Paring Knife is the technical antidote to bulk, offering a laser-thin profile and a balanced, D-shaped handle designed specifically for nimble, off-board tasks. During testing, the transition from vertical trimming on a board to intricate hand-peeling felt instinctive; the weight distribution favors the bolster, allowing the tip to move with micro-radius accuracy. The heart of this tool is the CMV60 (VG10) super steel core. Unlike softer Western steels that roll at 55 HRC, this Japanese core is ice-hardened via the CRYODUR process to a staggering 60-62 Rockwell Hardness. This translates to an edge that remains functional through weeks of high-volume prep without requiring a ceramic hone. The blade geometry is finished using the three-step Honbazuke method, resulting in a 9.5 to 12-degree mirror-polished edge that glides through tomato skins and citrus pith with zero resistance. Tactile feedback is provided by the black linen Micarta handle. Unlike traditional wood or cheap polymers, the Micarta possesses a fine, grain-like texture that actually increases grip security when your hands are wet or slick with vegetable juices. The D-shaped architecture fills the palm, preventing the 'rolling' sensation common with round handles during high-pressure peeling. This is not just a knife; it is a high-performance extension of the hand, engineered for chefs who demand metallurgical perfection. Learn More$129.95 -

Miyabi Koh 3.5-inch (90mm) Paring Knife
The Scalpel of the Kitchen: Miyabi Koh 3.5" Paring Knife Precision Hand-Honed in Seki, Japan—Where Centuries of Samurai Tradition Meet Modern German Engineering for Unrivaled Vegetable Artistry. Elevate your mise-en-place with the Miyabi Koh 3.5-inch Paring Knife, a tool designed for the chef who demands surgical precision. Known in Japan as a 'Kudamono,' this paring knife is the essential instrument for intricate tasks—from peeling delicate stone fruits to de-veining shrimp and creating elaborate garnishes. While many paring knives feel like an afterthought, the Miyabi Koh is built with the same uncompromising standards as a full-sized Gyuto. At the heart of this blade is FC61 fine carbide stainless steel. This revolutionary alloy solves the age-old cutlery dilemma: it offers the incredible edge retention and 'bite' of Japanese high-carbon steel, yet possesses the chip-resistant toughness typically associated with German blades. With a Rockwell hardness of 61, this knife maintains a 'scalpel-like' edge through hours of repetitive prep work. Each blade undergoes the FRIODURx2 ice-hardening process, a sophisticated cryogenic treatment that enhances the molecular structure of the steel for superior corrosion resistance and durability. Hand-finished by master artisans in Seki, the blade features a 3-step Honbazuke edge, sharpened to a breathtaking 9.5 to 12-degree angle. This ultra-thin Japanese profile ensures that you aren't just pushing through fiber; you are severing it with minimal resistance. The aesthetic is completed by a mirror-polished finish, a sandblasted katana edge, and a sophisticated silver mosaic pin—a nod to the ancient sword-making heritage of its birthplace.

Miyabi Black Paring Knife 3.5-inch
67 HRC Without the Brittleness: The Powdered Steel Precision Tool In the world of professional cutlery, a Rockwell hardness of 67 typically signals a blade that is dangerously brittle. The Miyabi Black 5000MCD67 series is the definitive exception to this rule. By utilizing Micro-Carbide MCD67 powdered steel, Miyabi has engineered a blade that maintains an incredibly sharp, surgical edge while retaining the structural toughness required for high-volume kitchen environments. This is not a standard factory blade; it is a specialized tool for chefs who demand zero compromise between hardness and durability. Advanced Metallurgy Meets Traditional Craft The core is enveloped in 132 layers of alternating stainless steels, creating a stunning 'Flower Damascus' pattern that serves a dual purpose: aesthetic brilliance and lateral protection for the high-hardness core. Each blade undergoes a specialized ice-hardening process (CRYODUR), enhancing the steel's crystalline structure to ensure the 9.5 to 12-degree Honbazuke-honed edge remains functional through weeks of heavy prep without requiring a stone. Ergonomics for the Detail-Oriented Chef The 3.5-inch profile is designed for high-dexterity tasks. Whether you are coring heirloom tomatoes, fluting mushrooms, or performing intricate 'in-the-hand' peeling, the traditional Japanese D-shaped handle provides a natural pivot point. Crafted from exquisite Bigleaf Maple Burl, the handle is uniquely grained and treated to withstand the moisture and rigors of a professional station. This is the ultimate tool for those who view paring as a foundational skill that requires a master-level instrument. Learn More$244.95 -

The Evolution 3.5 in. Paring Knife is great to use for small hand work such as coring, slicing and peeling. The paring knife is one of the most essential kitchen knives to have in your kitchen.

A sophisticated six-step ice hardening technique unlocks the steel’s full potential guaranteeing these FRIODUR blades boast remarkable initial sharpness, cutting edge retention, corrosion resistance, and chip-resistant toughness. Beautifully polished to a mirror finish, the blades have a katana edge reminiscent of the samurai swords forged in the same town centuries ago.

Miyabi Artisan 3.5-inch Paring Knife
Precision Redefined: The Surgical Power of SG2 Micro-Carbide Steel In the world of high-end cutlery, the paring knife is often the most personal tool in a chef’s roll. The Miyabi Artisan 3.5-inch Paring Knife is designed for those who demand more than just a utility blade; it is a precision instrument for segmenting citrus, deveining shrimp, and creating intricate garnishes. This knife excels where others fail because of its SG2 (MC63) micro-carbide powder steel core. While standard stainless knives struggle to maintain an edge, the 63 Rockwell hardness of the Artisan series ensures a 'surgical' feel that lasts through weeks of high-volume prep before needing the stones. The blade is a masterclass in Japanese heritage. Using the 3-step Honbazuke method, each edge is hand-honed to a 9.5-to-12 degree angle—a profile so thin it glides through soft fruit without bruising the delicate flesh. The Tsuchime (hammered) finish is not merely aesthetic; it creates functional air pockets that prevent starchy or wet foods from suctioning to the blade. Whether you are a professional saucier peeling shallots for a reduction or a home enthusiast perfecting a fruit platter, the rounded spine and bolster ensure your pinch grip remains comfortable, preventing the 'hot spots' common in lesser blades. The D-shaped Cocobolo Rosewood Pakkawood handle offers a traditional Japanese feel with modern durability, providing a secure, non-slip grip that feels like an extension of your own hand.
