Sharp!

For an everyday knife I have been using a 5.5 inch santoku knife. This knife is definitely different! Being a more classic chef knife, I have to get used to a different motion. I also hold it different than my santoku. For my petite hands, it does feel a tiny big large/heavy, but I think it's something I'll get used to. It is SO sharp. It is well made and it looks great. I think this knife will get used a lot!

Love it

Bought this knife for daily use and it's amazing! It's so sharp and cuts through meat like a hot knife through butter. Incredible craftsmanship. What a steal.

No other knife compares…

What a beautiful knife! I am not a professional, but I love high-quality products. My wife on the other hand is a degreed professional and knows what she’s doing in the kitchen. This knife was a gift for her. When she first saw it, she flipped out, having always wanted a Miyabi. She quickly demonstrated its quality by slicing into some bread on the counter. With no serrated edges, the knife glided through the bread leaving a perfect slice. Absolutely amazing the difference between an average knife and a Miyabi. Worth every penny and more.

Light weight; great for small hands

I have small hands so finding a knife that is comfortable, sharp, as well as good looking is close to impossible. I was gifted this knife and I'm excited for the meals it will help create.
