Knife Sets

Every Miyabi Black Profile, on One Easel The Miyabi Black 10-Piece Magnetic Block Set is for cooks who want the hardest steel among the Miyabi sets we carry, applied to every task from peeling fruit in the hand to portioning a side of salmon. Instead of building a collection one knife at a time, it supplies a matched series with one feel, one maintenance routine and one place to store it.
Why It Works Ultra-hard powder steel core: The core holds a keen edge through long prep sessions, so the knives need sharpening less often than softer steels. CRYODUR ice-hardening: Miyabi’s sub-zero hardening process adds hardness, durability and corrosion resistance. Flower Damascus cladding: Stainless layers protect the hard core and form a rippled pattern that differs on every blade. Honbazuke edge: Each smooth edge is hand-honed in three stages, so the blade enters food with very little resistance. Burl wood handles: Each handle shows its own color and figure, shaped in the traditional D profile with a rounded spine and heel for a comfortable grip. Magnetic easel: The knives stand against the easel instead of sliding into slots, which keeps the Damascus pattern on display and makes each knife easy to pick out.
In the Kitchen Two santoku profiles work alongside the chef’s knife. The smaller santoku is quick for vegetables and herbs, and the rocking santoku suits cooks who rock the blade through garlic and parsley rather than push-cutting. The slicing knife carves roasts and portions fish in long single strokes, and the bread knife saws through crusted loaves. The prep and paring knives cover shallots, trimming and peeling. For the core of the series without the slicer and rocking santoku, see the Miyabi Black 8-Piece Magnetic Knife Block Set. For a slightly softer SG2 core with natural birch handles, compare the Miyabi Birchwood 7-Piece Knife Block Set. Learn More

The Takashi set is for cooks who want a dedicated Global knife for every common job rather than asking a few knives to do everything. Seven knives run from a small peeling knife to a bread knife, and the set adds kitchen shears and a ceramic rod, all held in a single bamboo block.The chef’s knife and the vegetable knife share the main board work, one for rocking cuts and proteins and the other for straight push cuts through vegetables. The flexible boning knife follows the bones of chicken thighs, pork loin and ribs. Three small knives handle peeling and garnish work, and the bread knife takes crusty loaves. The ceramic rod keeps the straight edges aligned between sharpenings, and the shears cover herbs and packaging.
Takashi or a Smaller Set?For a smaller block built on the same chef’s and bread knives, see the Global Ikasu 5-Piece Knife Block Set. Several pieces are also sold individually, including the Global Classic 6.25-inch Flexible Boning Knife and the Global Kitchen Shears. Our kitchen knife shapes guide explains the role of each knife.

Seven Kaizen Knives for Every Routine Task Kaizen is Japanese for “improvement,” and the Miyabi Kaizen 10-Piece Knife Block Set is for cooks ready to replace a mixed drawer of knives with one matched Japanese collection. The flower Damascus blades, black Micarta handles and red spacers make it one of the most striking sets Miyabi produces, and its VG10 core costs considerably less than Miyabi’s powdered steel lines. It is the most complete Kaizen set we carry. Buying the line as a set means every knife shares the same steel, edge and handle, so each one feels familiar the moment it leaves the block. It also puts the knives most cooks postpone buying, a dedicated slicer and a second chef’s knife, in the kitchen from the first day.
Why It Works VG10 core: The hard stainless core takes a thin, acute edge and holds it well between sharpenings, so the knives stay keen through long prep sessions. Flower Damascus cladding: Stainless layers protect the core and are folded into a floral pattern that gives the whole set a uniform finish. CRYODUR ice-hardening: Miyabi’s sub-zero hardening process adds hardness, durability and corrosion resistance. Honbazuke edge: Each knife is hand-honed in three stages, producing an edge that cuts ripe tomatoes and tender herbs cleanly instead of crushing them. Thin Japanese profile: The blades are thinner behind the edge than a typical German knife, so they part carrots, squash and sweet potatoes with less force. Micarta handle: The linen composite resists moisture and keeps a dry, secure feel through long, wet prep sessions.
The Seven Knives Two chef’s knives: The longer knife carries volume work such as a sack of onions or a whole cabbage. The shorter one is quicker for a single shallot, a handful of herbs or work on a small board. Hollow-edge santoku: The flat edge suits fast push cuts, and the scallops along the blade help slices of potato and cucumber fall away. Slicing knife: The long, narrow blade carves roasts, portions salmon and slices brisket in single strokes, without sawing. Bread knife: The serrated edge cuts crusted sourdough, ripe tomatoes and layer cakes without compressing them. Utility knife: Sized for sandwiches, segmenting citrus and trimming small cuts of meat. Paring knife: Handles peeling apples, hulling strawberries and coring tomatoes in the hand.
Choosing a Miyabi Set For the four core Kaizen knives in a smaller block, see the Miyabi Kaizen 7-Piece Knife Block Set. Cooks who prefer a polished blade without Damascus cladding and an octagonal pakkawood handle should compare the Miyabi Koh 10-Piece Magnetic Knife Block Set. For the hardness of powdered steel, Miyabi offers SG2 in the Miyabi Artisan 7-Piece Knife Block Set and the Miyabi Birchwood 7-Piece Knife Block Set, and ZDP-189 in the Miyabi Black 10-Piece Magnetic Block Set.
