Zwilling MIYABI 5000 FCD Welded smooth Sujihiki knife 24 cm

MIYABI comes even closer to perfection with Kaizen II (Japanese for "improvement" or "change for the better"). The Kaizen II collection boasts Japanese craftsmanship combined with the best hardening technology and a beautiful modern design. The core, forged from ultra-strong FC61 super steel, is protected by an incredible 48 layers of stainless steel. Furthermore, Miyabi Kaizen II knives are as beautiful as they are functional. The beautiful damask floral pattern of the blade is darkened by immersion in acid. Ice-hardened FRIODUR® double blade for improved corrosion resistance and exceptional durability. Artisans sharpen the blades by hand using the venerable four-step Honbazuke method. This obsessive attention to detail creates a true work of art, i.e. the ultimate cutting precision. The blade is balanced thanks to a "D" handle made of pakkawood. Comfortable to hold, the classic Japanese “D” shape handle offers a comfortable grip for effortless cutting operations. This exceptional handle matches the caliber of the blade perfectly. Handmade in Seki, Japan, a city renowned for producing the highest quality cutlery.
