Zwilling MIYABI 5000 FCD Santoku Knife 18 cm Welded

The MIYABI 5000 FCD Gyutoh is a premium chef's knife designed to masterfully handle large cuts of meat and vegetables. With a 18 cm blade, this knife offers superior cutting performance thanks to its FC61 carbide steel core, which ensures an impeccable initial sharpness and a long-lasting edge. Wrapped in 48 layers of steel, the Gyutoh features an elegant Damascus design, given by the forging process.

The blade, ice-hardened using the FRIODUR® method, reaches a hardness of approximately 61 Rockwell, ensuring exceptional resistance and optimum cutting performance. The symmetrical sharpening, achieved through the traditional Honbazuke process, allows for smooth and precise use. The pakkawood handle, complemented by a mosaic pin and a steel end cap, offers a comfortable grip and a smooth transition between handle and blade, preventing calluses on the thumb and index finger.

To maintain the quality of the blade, it is recommended to wash the knife by hand and avoid cutting boards made of glass, ceramic or stone that could prematurely dull the edge. Sharpen on a stone to preserve its exceptional sharpness.
