What’s not to like about this knife, the feel, the blade, the look. It’s easily my new favorite, stays sharp cuts clean. If you were ever on the fence about it don’t be.

3rd Miyabi knife

Would Recommend

I just bought this knife as i have had two other Miyabi knives that have been amazing to use. The sharpness of Miyabi lasts such a long time. With proper maintenance honing it, i have only needed to wet stone sharpen ONCE in 6 years which is pretty amazing in my book. I look forward to seeing how this knife does! I do wish they offered Miyabi knife covers to buy for storage.

The best knife Ive ever used

Would Recommend

Ive been looking around for a new knife for work for about 2 years and finally decided to purchase this one. Im so glad I passed up every other option this was absolutely worth the wait. It feels like it was made for my hand. Perfectly balanced with a razor sharp edge and precision tip that would make a surgeon blush. The craftsmanship is unparalleled aside from its functionality, wich is 10 out of 10 across the board, it is a stunningly beautiful knife.

Been wanting a Miyabi for years but never bought one. My partner just got me this knife for a Valentine's Day surprise and I can't be more grateful. Beautiful knife, fantastic quality, easily my favorite knife in my stockage. Right out of the box, it cuts through sheets of paper like butter.

Good knife, light weight

Would Recommend

Amazing knife for all purpose use in the kitchen. It is extremely sharp, so be careful and take lots of precaution when using it. This knife is also very light but is an all-around workhorse in the kitchen. Very cool designs on the blade. Make sure to take care of it per manufacturer instructions to ensure longevity.

Great knife

Would Recommend

The Miyabi Kaizen chef knife is incredibly sharp right out of the box and stays that way far longer than any knife I’ve owned. It’s lightweight, perfectly balanced, and makes slicing effortless. The Damascus finish is beautiful, and the handle feels great in hand. Definitely a premium knife that’s worth it if you cook regularly.

I had been using a quality MAC chef's knife for years, and my new Miyabi Kaizen II absolutely blows it out of the water! The handle and balance are perfect for my hand, and the blade is razor-sharp, making easy work of even the toughest produce. It has been a joy to do prep work with this beautiful knife.
