Miyabi Artisan 5.5-inch Santoku Knife

Absolutely gorgeous knife, crafted so beautifully. Only reason I knocked a star is because it’s a tad awkward for my hand specifically, but the more I use it the more comfortable I am. I’ve never enjoyed cutting onions so much!

Great quality and amazing sharpness. Feels wonderful in your hand and well balanced.

5.5” is the perfect size for this knife. Everything about it is great quality (handle, blade, edge retention etc…)

Great knife. Bought for my wife and she loves the feel in her hand. 5’1” tall so she likes the smaller length for better control.

I really like the shape and style of the knife. very sharp knife and beautiful to cut with!

I'm new to Miyabi, I wanted some Japanese knives & did quite a bit of reading/homework before ordering. I ordered a set of 2 Artisan knives but will have to return that ( one of the knives in that set was the incorrect sku ), I placed a separate order for this 7" Artisan Santoku, the Knife arrived with 2 parallel scuff marks running the entire length of the blade. So both orders are a big disappointment, the scuffs are deep and cannot be easily buffed out. Needless to say I am not very impressed with the service and or quality..

So sharp, love the shape and size for bigger meats and veggies

I recently purchased the Miyabi Artisan 7-inch Santoku knife, and I couldn't be more impressed. From the moment I held it, I could feel the premium craftsmanship—everything from the stunning design to the balance in hand shows meticulous attention to detail. The blade itself is razor-sharp right out of the box and holds its edge exceptionally well, making food prep effortless. Whether slicing vegetables, proteins, or herbs, this knife glides through ingredients with precision. The ergonomic handle adds to the comfort, allowing for extended use without fatigue. Overall, this Santoku knife has exceeded my expectations in both performance and aesthetics. If you're looking for a high-quality knife that combines artistry with functionality, this is a fantastic choice. Highly recommended!

I’ve had this knife for a little over a year and have used it almost daily, often multiple times per day on a variety of foods. It is still extremely sharp without having sharpened it at all and cuts effortlessly. It also feels comfortable in my hand and is well balanced. It’s a great all around knife and if I need another knife I will be choosing this brand.

The product is good Very sharp knife Nice handle and very light Im veey happy i bought it Will order again the soonest

Really great knife and craftsmanship! Its sharp and it just feels right in the hand. Its our entry into the Japanese knives. We will definitely be looking to buy other Miyabi products.

Purchased the 3.5" Paring Knife, 5.5" Santoku Knife and 8" Chef's Knife from the Miyabi Artisan series. Handles fit well in my larger hands! Visually very nice to look at and exceedingly sharp right out of the packaging. Handles are nice and smooth everywhere they should be and allow plenty of control. I felt that the blades worked very well when I was preparing dinner. Pork loin and mixed veg.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The 5.5 inch santoku offers a sharp edge with excellent control

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Spectacular blade. I used it to make corned beef for my Irish grandmother.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this as a gift and to be honest I never opened it until recently because it is just so pretty to look at. The handle is on the heavier side for me personally but the cut is perfect and does the job done.

Love the design and shape of the knife. Works great! Comfortable handle

(This review was collected as part of a promotion.) This knife is a beauty. One I got over how good it looks, I tried it out and found it to be well balanced, sturdy and very sharp.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Easily the sharpest knife I have ever handled, and the craftsmanship is impeccable.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have always wanted these knives and I could not be happier. They are very sharp cut great abs are beautifully made!

Love the thin blade (it's taking some time getting used to), which stays really sharp. The overall weight is good and I can't wait to use this for years to come.
