Zwilling MIYABI 5000 FCD Santoku Knife 18 cm Welded

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

The blade, ice-hardened using the FRIODUR® process, reaches a hardness of approximately 61 Rockwell, ensuring exceptional strength and optimal cutting performance. The symmetrical sharpening, achieved using the traditional Honbazuke process, allows for smooth and precise use. The pakkawood handle, finished with 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, we recommend hand-washing the knife and avoiding glass, ceramic, or stone cutting boards that could prematurely dull the edge. Stone-sharpen the knife to preserve its exceptional sharpness.
