Knife Sets
Choosing a knife set is easiest when you focus on the knives you will actually use. Many boxed sets are built around a target price or piece count, which may include extra knives or accessories that don't fit your cooking style. At Knife Merchant, we prefer practical sets that give you the core tools you need while still offering the savings that comes from buying multiple knives together.
If you do not see the exact set you want, we can help you build one. Call or email us and we will be happy to build a custom knife set based on your budget, preferred brand, and the types of prep work you do most often.
If you are specifically looking for a set with countertop storage, browse our selection of Knife Block Sets.

Miyabi Black 2-Piece Knife Set: 8-inch Chef’s and 3.5-inch Paring
Two Knives for Most of the Daily Work The Miyabi Black 2-Piece Knife Set pairs the series’ 8-inch chef’s knife with its 3.5-inch paring knife. Between them, the two cover most everyday prep: the chef’s knife handles board work from dicing to slicing, and the paring knife handles peeling, trimming and detail work in the hand. It is a practical starting point for cooks building a Miyabi Black collection.
Construction and Performance Ultra-hard core steel. Both knives share a fine-grained powder steel core that holds a keen edge through extended use. Ice-hardened blades. Sub-zero hardening stabilizes the steel for added hardness and corrosion resistance. Flower Damascus cladding. Stainless layers protect each hard core and give the pair a matched rippled pattern. Honbazuke edges. Each edge is hand-honed in three stages for clean cuts through dense vegetables and delicate fruit alike. D-shaped handles. The traditional Japanese profile gives a comfortable grip on both knives. Each handle’s grain and color are unique.
Building the Collection The natural additions to this pair are the Miyabi Black 9.5-inch Bread Knife for bread and the Miyabi Black 10-inch Tungsten Honing Rod for edge maintenance. Learn More
