Top-of-the-line MIYABI Birchwood is a work of culinary art. Both blade and handle are crafted from the most precious materials, which shape their striking appearance.More than meets the eye, the potent core of SG2 micro-carbide powder steel is protected by 100 layers of steel.

Beneath its beautiful exterior, the flower Damascus pattern provides added durability.The scalpel-like blade is complemented by an equally striking Karelian (Masur) Birch handle.

Work of art with sharpness!
This knife is a piece of artwork, I love the wooden handle. The blade is unbelievably beautiful, I leave it out on the counter on display to show it off. People always comment on how cool the blade looks. I’ve had Cutco the past, Don’t waste your money on those,they’re junk. These knives are unbelievably sharp. I highly recommend the investment. I use these several times a week and they’re still sharp.

Heirloom Quality; Commercial Performance
The first thing to know about this knife is that it's absolutely beautiful. But as you take a closer look from different angles, you begin to truly appreciate the craftsmanship and skill that went into making it. It's an heirloom quality knife, and one that stands out in a kitchen. That said, it's not just for show. This edge absolutely glides through fish and meat. It's got that sharpness that leaves a glossy cut; the sharpness that actually makes food taste better because it truly slices and doesn't tear. I don't use this knife every day, but when I do use it, it helps me enjoy the experience of cooking.

Sharp Slicer Knife
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I like the Birchwood handle as much as the sharp metal end. It's lightweight and long, perfect for my sushi knife.

Great knife set!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was choosing the knife set between Miyabi 9 pieces and Shun Hikari 12 pieces. After receiving both sets in the same day, I can tell you that Miyabi set is way better quality, amazing craftsmanship with a lot of details and overall great looking knifes. I also love how it feels in a smaller woman’s hand.

So sharp
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This knife along with the rest of the series are just unbelievably sharp. Sliced right through my brisket so easily I was able to do incredibly thin slices looking forward to using this for years to come

Stunning!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Absolutely stunning knife and very sharp out of the box. Take a little time to protect the birchwood handle. Had to buy a magnetic block just to look at them while I’m in the kitchen, that’s how stunning they are!

Beautiful piece of art
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Bought this knife specifically to start my adventures into making sushi. So this will be only be used to slice sushi. I used it today. It’s absolutely perfect. My sushi came out looking great. So I’d say if you are looking for a knife to use for sushi that is as beautiful as it performs. Grab one.

Beautiful and Excellent
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I just purchased this slicer to add to my Miyabi Birchwood collection (5 knives so far). It is not only just a beautiful knife, but it is exactly what I needed for making sushi and cutting fish. It makes all the difference in the world when working in the kitchen - just like all my Miyabi knives. I don't know how I functioned without them in all my years of cooking, but just so glad that I have them now!

Amazing
First up, this knife is evenly balanced. I cannot say the same for the knife being replaced. Secondly it is stunning and super sharp out of the box. 10 out of 10 a wonderful knife. This is slowly replacing a knife set that cannot pass a paper test. Needless to say - the differences are night and day. Miyabi Birchwood series are the best.

Wicked sharp
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This has to be the sharpest knife that I have ever used. It cuts through roasts, fish, sushi, and so much more and it really does cut like butter. Awesome knife and I tell everyone I know about it.
