Description
MIYABI moves one step closer to perfection with Kaizen II – Japanese for “improvement” or "change for the better." 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. Artisans hand-hone the blades using the venerable four-step Honbazuke method. This fine attention to detail translates into a work of art that is the ultimate in precision cutting. The blade is balanced by a substantial D-shaped handle made of black pakkawood. Effortless to hold, the classic Japanese “D”-shape handle offers a comfortable grip for stress-free cutting. This striking handle truly matches the caliber of the blade. Handcrafted in Seki, Japan, a city renowned for its highest quality cutlery production.

Extremely sharp and beautiful knives
I have been saving up for these for a year, and they did not disappoint. My family are big cookers, and this just makes cooking twice as fun. They are gorgeous on the counter and cut through anything like butter.

Beautiful Knives
This set came well-packaged and beautifully sharp out of the box. The handles are pretty ergonomic and pleasant to cut with, though a touch slippery that I expect to develop more grip with time. Overall a great experience

Miyabi 7pc set
Came out of the box very sharp. The flexibility on these knives is very nice. The balance is perfect and handle is great. I have larger hands and the way these sit in my palms is wonderful. The taper from the handle to the blade makes it extremely comfortable when cutting anything. If you want a slightly flexible blade and a good sized handle these are the knives.

You can’t call yourself a Chef without this Set!
I am beyond obsessed with this set. I started off my Miyabi journey by purchasing a single Chef’s knife, and immediately I fell in love. This knife combines traditional Japanese craftsmanship with the best German blade molding technique to create a sleek look and a sharp tool for any kitchen! While I cut everything with the Chef’s knife, I decided to add a paring knife. It just wasn’t enough! So I had to get the whole set! The bamboo stand makes it so easy to store the knives after I’ve washed them by hand and towel / air dried them. I highly recommend this set to anyone who wants to use it for personal or professional use.

Incredible knife set
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These gorgeous knives are just as amazing as they look. My husband and I wanted a nice knife set for our new kitchen and we were recommended Miyabi by a friend who is also a chef. She told us these knives would not disappoint and she was correct. We are in love and hope to add to our collection as we further our culinary experience.
