Miyabi Kaizen II, 9.5-inch Chef's Knife

DESCRIPTION This chef’s knife is an all-rounder tool, designed for those who prefer a large-bladed knife. Chop herbs, dice onions, and mince garlic with this workhorse blade, and then transport ingredients on the generous blade from the cutting board to a bowl or pan. MIYABI moves one step closer to perfection with Kaizen II – Japanese for “improvement” or "change for the better." Handcrafted in Seki, Japan, a city renowned for the highest quality cutlery production, the Kaizen II collection boasts traditional Japanese craftsmanship combined with the best hardening technology and beautiful modern design. The core, forged from resilient FC61 super steel, is protected by a stunning 48 layers of stainless steel. And MIYABI Kaizen II knives are as beautiful as they are functional. The blades’ gorgeous flower Damascus pattern is dramatically darkened through acid dipping. The double FRIODUR® ice-hardened blade makes for improved corrosion resistance and astonishing durability.
