About this item

  • Includes 3.5" Parer; 7" Santoku; 8" Chef; 9" Bread; Stainless Steel Shears; 9" Birchwood Handle Steel; 12-Slot Bamboo Block
  • Authentic thin Japanese blade profile
  • Hand-honed using the three-step Honbazuke process to a 9.5 to 12 degree edge
  • CRYODUR blade, ice-hardened to Rockwell 63
  • 101-layer flower Damascus design with katana edge
  • Traditional Japanese Karelian (Masur) Birch handle
  • Rounded spine and heel
  • Handcrafted in Seki, Japan
  • 3.5" Parer; 7" Santoku; 8" Chef; 9" Bread; Stainless Steel Shears; 9" Birchwood Handle Steel; 12-Slot Bamboo Block
  • Top-of-the-line MIYABI Birchwood is a work of culinary art. Both blade and handle are crafted from the most precious materials, which shape their striking appearance. More than meets the eye, the potent core of SG2 micro-carbide powder steel is protected by 100 layers of steel. MIYABI's innovative, ice-hardening process locks in the long-lasting sharpness of the CRYODUR blades. Beneath its beautiful exterior, the flower Damascus pattern provides added durability. The scalpel-like blade is complemented by an equally striking Karelian (Masur) Birch handle. A prized material for knife handles, Karelian Birch is also the only wood ever used in a Faberge egg. Exquisite and ergonomic, MIYABI Birchwood knives feel as good as they look.

A sexy looking knife set!

The best knives thus far we've purchased. I picked this set up for my wife as a Christmas present! She absolutely loves them. Out of the box they are super sharp! Balanced feel in the hands and the birchwood handle is very comfortable. The set comes with the most used set of knives. But shall you need additional, you can purchase individually. Which I plan on doing in the future. As a plus, it also serves as a great decorative piece on the counter. Highly recommend. Read more

Not as advertised!

The knives look very nice but came without the correct steel. It came with a cheap 11$ Henckels steel instead of the 199$ original. Read more
