MIYABI Evolution 5.5" Hollow Edge Santoku Knife

The MIYABI Evolution 5.5" Hollow Edge Santoku Knife is an all-purpose knife for slicing and chopping. The specially contoured edge is perfect for cutting vegetables, and the wide blade doubles as a spatula. The hollow, granton edge allows air between the blade and the item being cut for extra thin cutting. The full-tang blade of this Santoku knife has a 9.5 to 12 degree edge to create the exceptionally sharp, thin blade style synonymous with Japanese cutlery. This fine carbide steel knife is FRIODURx2 ice-hardened, which creates a smooth glass like finish that is durable, corrosive resistant and provides a scalpel-like sharpness. Each MIYABI Evolution knife's three-rivet ergonomic POM handle is sculpted in a thicker German style that is designed to fit comfortably in your hands for tireless cutting. The visually-striking handle is sturdy and will not crack or discolor. Made by skilled artisans, it takes over 100 steps and 42 days to create this high caliber knife. Hand-washing is recommended.
