Beautiful Blade, New Favorite Knife

Would Recommend

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. I will undoubtedly be purchasing more Miyabi knives in the future!

We were gifted this knife, along with the Miyabi pairing knife, and the Miyabi Santoku. They have been awesome! We apparently are also getting a free gift by leaving this review!

Wicked Sharp

Would Recommend

This is my first Japanese steel knife and it is amazingly sharp. I can cut paper-thin slices off a tomato, and cut anything with extreme ease. This is awesome and I highly recommend upgrading to these if you can afford it if you cook with any regularity. They also look really cool and everyone who comes over asks about them, so i wish i had a better backstory than that i bought them on the internet.

PERFECTION

One of the best knives I have ever owned- and I have quite a few very high end, Japanese knives that cost quite a bit more than this one. Balance is perfect, and it's VERY VERY sharp.

Simply Amazing

Would Recommend

After owning a few different brands of chef knives, I can say that this is by far the best knife I've ever owned. The handle is extremely comfortable for those long tasks, it's extremely well balanced, and the construction feels like it was built to last a lifetime. The blade, right out of the box, is extremely sharp... It's impressively sharp. I tested the precision by cutting the thinnest slice of tomato I've ever seen. Will continue to replace my knives with Miyabi in the future!

Form and function!

Would Recommend

Packaged wonderfully and blade was very sharp upon opening. The pattern on the blade is beautiful and the handle is substantial without being too heavy. Very well constructed, seems like it will last a long time with proper care!

A Great replacement

We have had a 7 piece set of Henckels for over 30 years and we decided that it was time to upgrade our knives. It took over a year to decide which knives to purchase. We finally decided that ZWILLING was the best choice for us and we purchased several knives and we are very glad we did, however, I then had to purchase a bigger knife block to hold the beautiful new knives.
