More than meets the eye, the potent core of SG2 micro-carbide powder steel is protected by 100 layers of steel. Miyabi's innovative, ice-hardening process locks in the long-lasting sharpness of the Cryodur blades. Beneath its beautiful exterior, the flower Damascus pattern provides added durability.
The scalpel-like blade is complemented by an equally striking Karelian (Masur) Birch handle. A prized material for knife handles, Karelian Birch is also the only wood ever used in a Faberge egg. Exquisite and ergonomic, Miyabi Birchwood knives feel as good as they look.
