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.The blade is balanced by a refined D-shaped handle made of black linen Micarta. With a wood-like texture, the comfortable handle won't slip from your hand and acts as a moisture repellant. Handcrafted in Seki, Japan.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My favorite knife. I have many Miyabi kaizen knives and have consistently been happy with them. Very easy to use. Only issue is they chip when thrown into the sink, which children often do.

This, and the Myabi chef knife are my go-to knifes. They are fantastic! It cuts like a dream and is very easy to handle- perfect size. Besides a bread knife, I don't need any other knives. I love these Myabi knives so much, I bought them when I moved out of a shared housing arrangement where my housemates had them.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I got the Moyano Kaizen chef’s knife a while ago and loved it. My paring knife broke, and I’m so glad I got this to replace it. Super sharp, great hand hold, and excellent length. This is quickly becoming my prep, utility and paring knife!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Perfectly balanced little paring knife. I rock this knife, the Kaizen II 5 inch prep knife and the Miyabi Black dancing sontoku knives as my three go-tos. They pretty much cover all my cutting and cooking needs.
