Experience exceptional cutting performance with the Miyabi Kaizen 3.5-inch straight paring knife, embodying Japanese craftsmanship and cutting-edge technology. This premium knife features a strong, resilient core made from high-carbon VG10 super steel, enveloped in a beautiful 65-layer flower Damascus design. The CRYODUR blade undergoes an innovative ice-hardening treatment, achieving a remarkable Rockwell 60 hardness for durability and sharpness. Artisans then hand-hone the blade using the revered three-step Honbazuke process, yielding a razor-sharp 9.5 to 12 degree edge. Paired with a refined D-shaped black linen Micarta handle, offering a comfortable grip and moisture resistance, this handcrafted paring knife from Seki, Japan, is designed for precision and control.
