Customer review summary generated by AI, including incentivized reviews.This beauty from Miyabi Kaizen is full of great features - Damascus pattern with 48 layers of steel, super sharp edge and thin blade, lightweight, so easy to handle. Great for a wooden cutting board. Beautiful wood handle, so comfortable and nice to hold. Really a veggie knife, but we use it for so much more!

If you liked the sharpness of the original Kaizen, but found the handle a little foreign, then it might be time to reconsider the Kaizen line. The handle and the bolster were beefed up to provide more feedback with a firm pinch grip. The 49-layers of steel are hand finished to an extremely sharp edge that holds. It has a double Damascus pattern that is stunning. This paring knife is easy in the hand. Nimble. Easy to core out a tomato, take the eyes out of a potato. Very popular knife.
