Miyabi Birchwood Santoku

The Miyabi Birchwood 7 in. (180mm) 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. Extremely versatile, can even be used for decorating purposes. This 7-inch fine edge santoku is perfect for all cutting tasks. Santoku - Japanese for "three virtues" - excels at three cutting techniques: expertly mince garlic, slice cucumber, and dice onions with this Japanese all-rounder.

• Handcrafted in Seki, Japan, top-of-the-line MIYABI Birchwood is a work of culinary art. Both blade and handle are crafted from the most precious materials, which shape their striking appearance. More than meets the eye, the potent core of SG2 micro-carbide powder steel is protected by a stunning 100-layer flower Damascus pattern.


• MIYABI’s innovative, CRYODUR® ice-hardening process locks in the blade’s long-lasting sharpness. The scalpel-like blade is complemented by an equally striking and comfortable Karelian (Masur) Birch handle. A prized material for knife handles, Karelian Birch is also the only wood ever used in a Fabergé egg. Exquisite and ergonomic, MIYABI Birchwood knives feel as good as they look.
