The Miyabi Hibana collection features a beautiful 49-ply Spark Damascus pattern on the blade that both strengthens and protects the FC61 steel core. The triple-riveted handle features a curved, ergonomic bolster for maximum comfort with the pinch grip. The elegant black and brass-colored spacers on the handle add to the beauty and weight of the knife, promoting stability in the hand and maneuverability at the tip. The chef's knife (GYUTOH) is the workhorse in the kitchen. Whether for chopping, slicing or dicing meat and vegetables, the wide, sturdy blade and comfortable, well-balanced size will quickly become the knife of choice for everyday tasks.
