Maintenance Each Miyabi knife is carefully balanced to provide maximum control and comfort while slicing, chopping and filleting. Although these knives stay sharp for a very long time, Miyabi knives also become blunt over time. You can easily sharpen the knife yourself with Japanese whetstones for optimal results. Do not use it on glass, ceramic or stone cutting boards, as this will blunt the cutting edge too quickly. We recommend wooden or bamboo cutting boards. Cleaning Never use the dishwasher to clean the knife. The aggressive detergent can dull and damage the blade and also affect the handle. Wash the knife by hand in lukewarm water with a mild detergent and dry immediately with a soft cloth. Allow the knife to air dry briefly before storing it safely.

This Japanese santoku has a hard fine carbide steel core for very good cutting edge retention and sharpness. Santoku translates as "Three Virtues", these being meat, fish and vegetables. The flat cutting edge lends itself to a chopping motion rather than the rocking cutting movement of European chef's knives. The blade core is surrounded by 48 outer layers of steel which make up the unique Damascus-design pattern on the blade. The cutting edge is Honbazuke-honed and symmetrical (not single bevel), so can be used by those both right and left-handed. There is no finger guard so the whole length of the cutting edge can be used. The handle and half-bolster join seamlessly for comfortable use. The smooth surface helps to prevent the formation of calluses on the thumb and forefinger. Hand wash only for best care, and maintain and sharpen using a whetstone. We’d recommend using a wooden chopping board rather than glass, ceramic or stone boards as these will dull the cutting edge.   FC61 fine carbide steel blade core 48 layers of steel surrounding the core create the Damascus-design FRIODUR ice-hardened for extreme hardness Rockwell hardness of approximately 61 Symmetrical cutting edge Pakka wood handle Blade core made of FC61 steel embedded in 48 layers of steel, Made in Seki, Japan Warranty: ZWILLING Lifetime Warranty
