Knives

The Miyabi Kaizen 5.5 in. (140mm) Santoku is a classic Japanese knife for chopping, mincing and slicing vegetables. The special feature of the Santoku is its thin blade with wedge shaped edge. Features a hollow or granton edge (dimples), designed to keep food, especially starchy food like potatoes, from sticking or clinging to the blade. Extremely versatile, can even be used for decorating purposes. Hand wash only. Kaizen - Japanese for "improvement" or "change for the better." This line of knives combines the best hardening technology with the artistry of traditional Japanese craftsmanship. The resilient core of VG10 super steel is protected by a stunning 64-layer flower Damascus pattern.The Crydour blades feature exceptional sharpness and durability thanks to their innovative, ice-hardening treatment. Then, artisans hand-hone the blades with the historic Honbazuke method. This attention to detail translates into precision cutting for Miyabi Kaizen users. The blade is balanced by a refined D-shaped handle made of black linen Micarta. With a wood-like texture, the comfortable handle won't slip from your hand and acts as a moisture repellent.
