Miyabi 5000MCD 16cm CRYODUR blade japanese meat knife

This Miyabi meat knife (also known as Chutoh), also suitable for fish, is based on the Japanese cutlery tradition. As a result, it offers unbeatable sharpness and ease of use.

The high-end stainless steel blade has a strong MC63 microcarbide core for incredible strength! What's more, the CRYODUR hardening process enhances the blade's already extreme hardness. In fact, it has undergone intense cooling down to -196°C. As a result, it will achieve a strength of around 63 HRC on the Rockwell scale.

What's more, the damascus blade has benefited from a very special creation process, giving it even greater strength and a totally unique visual appearance. The process consists in creating a steel plate mixing soft and hard steel, which are then welded together. It is this technique that creates the waves on the blade.

The blade also features a typically Japanese profile: it has been designed to give you a 19° cutting edge, perfect for cutting all your foods.

The handle of this knife is also noteworthy: made of birch with stainless steel ends, it will ensure undeniable comfort of use. Indeed, birch wood is known to be very light, and the "D" shape of the handle will create a perfect balance of the whole knife. This gives you absolute control for all your cutting!

Last but not least, the sleek, authentic style of this Japanese knife will appeal to all lovers of fine blades. Its damascened blade, red and gold edging and light birch handle, topped by a rivet with a mosaic logo attesting to the knife's authenticity, make for a highly successful design.
