Miyabi Birchwood SG2 6-Inch Chef’s Knife
The Miyabi Birchwood SG2 6-Inch Chef’s Knife is an exquisite combination of beauty, craftsmanship and elegance. It makes a stunning and functional addition to any home or professional cutlery collection.   Handcrafted in Seki, Japan, the Miyabi Birchwood chef knife has an ice-hardened CRYODUR blade with a katana edge and a thin blade profile. The exquisite flower Damascus pattern provides durability for slicing through large cuts of beef, deboning chicken and chopping thick root vegetables. The curved spine and gently rounded blade come to a perfect point. This makes it easy to score bread, pierce pie crust or grab chunks of meat to toss in a stew pot. The Miyabi Birchwood knife has an extra large bolster for safety and stability while using the pinch grip cutting technique.   The striking Karelian birch handle on the Miyabi Birchwood SG2 chef's knife has a rounded shape for comfort and ergonomics. Hand-fatigue is a thing of the past with this multi-purpose kitchen tool.   Dimensions: Blade Length: 5.91”, Handle Length: 4.53” Care & Use: Hand wash Materials: Japanese stainless steel
