I want to start out this review by telling you my husband got me this Miyabi Evolution 8-inch chef’s knife for Christmas. This knife came very sharp and very beautiful. As an aspiring home chef, admittedly the length and look of this knife intimidated me at first.    But I quickly got over it as I picked up the knife and held it in my hand.  It fit like a glove and I am lefthanded.

 

Crafted with the finest materials in Seki, Japan, the samurai sword-making capital of the world, skilled artisans merge the best German engineering and the authentic artistry of traditional Japanese craftmanship creating a chef’s knife with exceptional sharpness and durability.

​

The Miyabi Evolution Chef’s Knife has a blade that is ice-hardened creating durability and corrosion resistance.  The Miyabi Evolution 8-inch Chef’s knife is full-tang which contributes to its durability, balancing, and of course beauty.   Also, the blade is made with revolutionary fine carbide FC61 steel creating supreme sharpness, keeping true to the Japanese reputation of delivering razor sharp knives. 

​

The handle is made from POM protecting the handle from harboring any bacteria.  It is triple-riveted and ergonomic for a comfortable grip and experience with this knife.

​

From welding to honing, a Miyabi knife is created in 42 days and 130 production steps. When completed you have a knife worthy of the Miyabi brand.
