MIYABI Mizu SG2 6.5 Nakiri Chef's Knife

Miyabi celebrates Japanese craftsmanship with its Mizu knife collection. Blending traditional methods and innovative techniques, these knives seamlessly merge the past and present into an exceptional ensemble. The SG2 micro-carbide powder stainless steel core is encased in an additional layer of stainless steel, featuring a captivating hammered ("Tsuchime") Damascus finish. The Cryodur heat treatment process imbues the blade with a remarkable Rockwell Hardness rating of 63, ensuring superior edge retention, corrosion resistance, and blade flexibility.

Miyabi's skilled artisans then employ the Honbazuke sharpening method, an age-old technique originating from traditional Japanese sword making. This meticulous 3-step process involves sharpening the blades twice on whetstones, followed by a final mirror polishing on a leather wheel. Honed using the same methods as centuries-old samurai swords, these knives boast Miyabi's signature razor-sharp precision.

The meticulously crafted blade is complemented by a stunning, comfortable, and durable D-shaped Micarta handle, accompanied by a stainless steel bolster. Elegant accents adorn the handle, including a decorative mosaic pin, red spacers, and the Miyabi logo engraved on the handle's end. Handcrafted in Seki, Japan, this exceptional knife collection is backed by a Limited Lifetime Warranty, reflecting Miyabi's commitment to excellence.
