Description
Perfection, shaped with every stroke: the MIYABI ARTISAN 6000MCT 9-inch Bread Knife in Brown. This exceptional bread knife features a tough serrated edge that easily cuts through bread crusts and pastries. Made from a core of SG2 (MC63) micro-carbide powder steel encased by two extra layers of steel, the blade is CRYODUR ice-hardened at -196 degrees to an impressive 62-64 HRC for a sturdy, durable, and exceptionally sharp knife. The authentic thin Japanese blade profile is hand-honed using the traditional 3-step Honbazuke process to a precise 9.5 to 12 degree edge. The distinctive hammered "Tsuchime" finish gives the blade its characteristic pattern and reduces food sticking. The ergonomic cocobolo Pakka Wood handle from Central America is crafted in a curved goose neck shape for optimal comfort, with an individual weight adjustment within the handle for effortless cutting with minimal effort. Hand wash only. Handcrafted in Seki, Japan.
