MIYABI Kaizen II - 5000FCD 8-inch Chef's Knife

The MIYABI Kaizen II FC61 collection represents a step closer to perfection. These knives are forged from resilient FC61 fine carbide steel, protected by 49 layers of Damascus steel, and finished with a darkened acid dip that adds both beauty and durability. The blades undergo a double FRIODUR® ice-hardening process, enhancing their corrosion resistance and toughness. Each knife is meticulously hand-honed using the four-step Honbazuke method, resulting in a blade of extraordinary sharpness and precision. The black pakkawood handle, elegantly stamped with a mosaic pin and accented with a decorative red spacer, provides a comfortable, ergonomic grip. Handcrafted in Seki, Japan, the MIYABI Kaizen II FC61 series offers the perfect balance of traditional craftsmanship and modern innovation, making it an essential tool for the refined chef.
