Description
MIYABI BIRCHWOOD 5000MCD 7-inch Rocking Santoku, Brown is a manifesto made of steel and wood, a work of culinary art where both blade and handle are crafted from the most precious materials. Handcrafted in Seki, Japan, the potent SG2 / MC63 micro-carbide powder steel core at 63 HRC is protected by 100 layers of steel, forming a breathtaking 101-layer Flower Damascus pattern that is unique to each knife. MIYABI's innovative CRYODUR ice-hardening process locks in long-lasting sharpness, while the Flower Damascus pattern provides added durability beneath its beautiful exterior. The scalpel-like blade is hand-sharpened using the traditional Honbazuke method to a precise 9.5 to 12 degree angle with a katana edge for effortless, precise cuts. Complementing the blade is an equally striking D-shaped handle made of Karelian (Masur) Birch, a prized material also known as the only wood ever used in a Faberge egg, finished with a mosaic pin and end cap for an exquisite, ergonomic feel. Hand wash only.
