    Summary

    Forged in Seki, Japan, this beautiful Miyabi knife combines exceptional Japanese craftsmanship with the best German blade-hardening technology and stunning modern design. The blade is expertly layered with SG2 micro-carbide powder steel using an innovative ice-hardening process. Each side is finished with 50 layers of floral-patterned Damascus steel to protect the long-lasting sharpness of the Cryodur blade while increasing its corrosion-resistance. The scalpel-like knife edge is hand sharpened using a traditional three-step Honbazuke method, which includes a final mirror polish to create the exquisite finish. The traditional D-shaped handle is made from prized Karelian (Masur) birch – the only wood ever used in a Fabergé egg. This chef's knife is a true kitchen workhorse, designed for a range of tasks including dicing, slicing and chopping.

    • SG2 micro-carbide powder steel blade is protected by 100 layers of Damascus stainless steel (50 on each side) and hand hammered in a striking floral pattern.
    • Authentic thin Japanese blade profile enables lightweight handling for precise control.
    • Fine carbide distribution creates razor-sharp blade with Rockwell hardness 63.
    • Double ice-hardened FRIODUR blade provides remarkable durability, corrosion-resistance and edge-retention.
    • Using historic Honbazuke method, blade is hand honed to exceptionally sharp 9.5–12 degree angle.
    • Blade has rounded spine and heel.
    • Karelian (Masur) birch handle features mosaic pin and engraved Miyabi logo on end cap.
    • Ergonomic D-shaped handle is comfortable to hold.

    Wha wha :(

    This Miyabi Birchwood Chef's knife is beautiful with the Damascus blade and blonde Birchwood handle. However, I was a little disappointed with my purchase but maybe I had too high expectations. I thought this knife would be extremely sharp and the handle to be smoother especially at this price. My judge of sharpness is how well it cuts through a ripe tomato or a slightly wilted lime. If it cuts through either of these items like a hot knife through butter, then it's ultra sharp. It did ok with both straight out of the box but not without a bit of sawing. I have a carbon-steel knife that went through effortlessly. Also, the handle felt a little rough and I needed to oil it with mineral oil before using it. It could have used several swipes with fine grit sandpaper to smooth it out if I had some available. Lastly, I ordered this knife from WS and another knife from a website in Canada (I live in California), and the knife from Canada arrived before this knife so I don't know how to explain that. Overall, I'm pleased with the knife considering it was on sale and I redeemed a $250 WS gift card so I paid a fraction of the original price. Had I paid the full price, I would be sadly disappointed.

    Sharp Beauty

    I’ve been looking at knives ever since I got moved into the kitchen at my job. A lot of the guys/girls use Japanese knives so I went to a Zwilling store near my job. As soon as I held this knife I knew it was the one. Light weight, SHARP, beautiful. I had to buy it. Can’t wait to use it at work and show it off a little

    Would buy again and again and again

    This is my second one as I bought one years ago as my first work knife and unfortunately lost it. By far my favorite blade. Perfectly light weight and balanced.

    Beyond Expectations

    Exceeded any expectations I had. Simply a gorgeous tool whose quality can be felt once held. I personally had my eye on this knife for a couple of weeks before finally placing my order and I am so glad to say that I do not regret it. To anyone on the fence, just know that this is an excellent choice and that all the positivity surrounding it is understated.

    good stuff

    While I was surprised by the weight, the comfort in the hand and alance is excellent. This knife holds an edge very well, making it a joy to use.

    Wonderful knife

    This is a wonderfully designed knife. It’s buttery smooth with how sharp it is. It’s also gorgeous with the Birchwood handle. This has easily replaced my other standard chefs knives as my go to work horse.

    Great knife for everyday use.

    This knife was everything I expected it to be. Handel feels good in hand even with the real wood, it came a little splintery, and I ended up sanding it slightly but it's probably been in some warehouse for some time. SUPER SHARP out of the box and is really easy to hone. Box did come slightly damaged like as if someone shook it far to hard but blade was not damaged and I don't blame Zwilling in the slightest. My handle came with a lot of "personality" but they all come different which is cool but I have seen it come kinda plain. I 100% would recommend to someone that knows how to take care of a knife but I wouldn't for beginners or people that wouldn't
