MIYABI strives for perfection with Kaizen - Japanese for "improvement" or "change for the better." This line of knives combines the best hardening technology with the artistry of traditional Japanese craftsmanship. The resilient core of VG10 super steel is protected by a stunning 64-layer flower Damascus pattern. The CRYODUR blades feature exceptional sharpness and durability thanks to their innovative, icehardening treatment. Then, artisans hand-hone the blades with the historic Honbazuke method. This attention to detail translates into precision cutting for MIYABI Kaizen users.

Great Japanese blade

We are vegetarians so prep a lot of veggies and fruits. This knife is so incredibly sharp. It's a little more lightweight than some other knives I have, which is nice. The handle is quite round so very comfortable.

Not so big after all!!!

This Kaizen 9.5" Chef knife is one of the most versatile knife in the kitchen. Great for cutting and slicing large meat, pile of vegetables and fruits. It chops quietly for its sharpness and functionality is awesome..!!! A scalpel-like sharpness with 65-layer Damascus flower design with katana edge. A VG10 super steel Japanese knife, 60 Rockwell hardness is outstanding. This knife offers exceptional in durability, cutting edge retention, and corrosion resistance. This exquisite, hand-hammered effect helps prevent food from sticking. The blade is balanced by a refined D-shaped handle made of black linen Micarta handle.

perfection!

I am in love, this knife feels so elegant and cuts like a dream. The steel that they use in this knife is so strong, my husband works around metal and was so impressed that it could be used in such a beautiful fashion. The handle is smooth, sits back the perfect amount from the blade edge and the Damascus jacket protecting the hard center steel is so rich looking! A knife to cherish for a lifetime!

Balance and Control in a Larger Chefs Knife

Forged, Japanese carbide steel...VG10...wrapped 50 times for unique look and further stability. Micarta handle looks like wood but tougher!
