This is an absolute beautiful knife.. easily the sharpest factory edge I've experienced. This will be primarily for vegetables and I have other Henkels that are less delicate and fancy. This company has never ceased to amaze me from the professionalism all the way down to their warranty. This knife was sent to me replacing one that was damaged about 10yrs ago. Have and always will buy henkel knives this won't be my last from the fusion line to a few kaizen, a Kramer essentials I've found that this company has always satisfied my needs and requirements as a cook. Thanks again for all the help and your wonderful product line!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This knife is extremely sharp and exceptionally beautiful. I like the rocking santoku for things such as parsley and garlic. It makes cutting veggies a pleasure. I would recommend this knife to chefs and skilled home cooks as well.

I am writing this review after roughly two years of heavy use with this knife in a professional setting. The main high points for me with this knife are: - blade is thin enough that it will glide through most vegetable prep and fruit prep with ease - edge retention is great and blade does not need to be sharpened or even honed daily. During proper use the blade should hold its sharpest edge without being touched up for at least a week and up to a month in a professional kitchen, for home cooks this could translate to a year or more. - cosmetically the blade is very pleasing after a few sessions of oiling the handle it begins to show the wood grain very beautifully. Additionally, the polishing on the spine of the knife is done very well and all edges are rounded off such that it won’t dig into your hand when cutting large amounts of product Play does not dig into your

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Excellent knife. I think best on the market to cut fish and other ingredients. Very sharp, does the job right. Highly recommend. Quality is unmatched.

I recently purchased two Miyabi chef’s knives—one 9.5 inch and one 8 inch—and I couldn’t be happier with them. The craftsmanship is absolutely stunning, and the blades are incredibly sharp right out of the box. They glide through everything from vegetables to meat with such ease, it actually makes prepping food enjoyable. The 9.5 inch knife is perfect for larger tasks, while the 8 inch feels a bit more versatile for everyday use. Both have a great balance and feel super comfortable in hand. I also love the elegant design—these knives are not only functional but beautiful too. Highly recommend to anyone who enjoys cooking and appreciates quality tools in the kitchen!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Razor sharp straight out of the very nice presentation box in comes in. Holds its edge for a crazy long time due to the exceptionally hard MC66 steel construction*. Beautiful craftsmanship and attention to detail from stunning maple handle to tip- for all the tactile folk out there check out the spine and choir on this knife, buttery smooth. The knife suits my hand perfectly and can accommodate a number of different grips, simply a joy to use. At 9.5” in length this knife is the perfect size for everyday prep for most tasks. With proper care this should last a lifetime. *be sure to avoid cutting frozen foods, bones, or other hard items and use a suitable cutting board to avoid chipping as this knife is hard hard hard. As with all quality knives, take care of the knife and it will take care of you.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I loved the product being so elegant firs of all, not mentioning the prettiest black stone handle I've ever seen. On the other hand, is sharp from the box, keeps a good balance on my hands and it doesn't make my wrists hurt like other knifes. I really recommend it and I'm glad with the company for coming up with this excellent and beautiful product! grazie mille

I was blown away by the craftsmanship of this knife. It’s not just a tool — it’s a piece of art. The blade is razor sharp straight out of the box, and the balance feels perfect in hand. It slices through vegetables and proteins like butter. Beautiful, functional, and worth every penny. Highly recommend!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Cosmetically the knife was not evenly polished on both sides. I would except more from this high end of a knife. Otherwise, I have no other complaints. It was sharpened evenly.

This Miyabi Black 8" Chef is a knife that changes how knife should be used on a daily basis. Thi is a true work of art, a knife is so sharp and fancy however it is so versatile you'll enjoy performance and functionality. Blade consists of 133 layers of steel, resulting in a floral Damascus pattern. This exquisite, hand-hammered effect helps prevent food from sticking. Maple wood handle shows uniqueness in every pieces. It is so sharp and saves you time sharpening your knife because it stays sharp as long that you honed it once in a while.The blade is constructed of micro-carbide powdered MC66 steel, which is ice-hardened to an impressive 66 HRC.
