Miyabi 5000MCD 18cm CRYODUR blade japanese santoku knife

This Miyabi santoku knife is a product of Japanese cutlery tradition. As a result, you'll be able to rely on its sharpness and ease of use!

The high-quality stainless steel blade has a core enriched with MC63 microcarbides, giving it incredible strength! What's more, the CRYODUR hardening process reinforces the blade's already high level of 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 special design process, giving it even greater strength and a highly original 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 offer a 19° cutting edge, perfect for cutting all your foods.

The handle of this knife is also worthy of note: designed in 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!

Finally, the knife's sleek, authentic style will appeal to all lovers of fine blades. Its damascus look, 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.
