Description
The 9.5-inch bread knife cuts cleanly through bread, tomatoes, and other foods with tough exteriors and soft interiors while minimizing tearing and crumbs. Effortlessly slice crusty sourdough or cube ciabatta with precision using this long, serrated blade.
MIYABI moves one step closer to perfection with Kaizen II—Japanese for “improvement” or “change for the better.” Handcrafted in Seki, Japan, a city renowned for exceptional cutlery, the Kaizen II collection combines traditional craftsmanship with advanced hardening technology and modern design.
The core, forged from resilient FC61 super steel, is protected by 48 layers of stainless steel, creating a stunning Damascus pattern enhanced through acid dipping. The double FRIODUR ice-hardened blade provides improved corrosion resistance and exceptional durability. Each blade is hand-honed using the Honbazuke method for precise, razor-sharp performance.
The blade is balanced by a substantial D-shaped handle made of black pakkawood. Designed for comfort and control, the ergonomic handle features a mosaic pin and a rounded bolster for enhanced balance and fatigue-free cutting.
