Miyabi Birchwood 9.5" Kiritsuke

Miyabi Birchwood is a work of culinary art. Both blade and handle are crafted from the most precious materials, which shape their striking appearance. The durable core of SG2 micro-carbide powdered steel is protected by 100 layers of stainless steel. The ice-hardening process locks in the long-lasting sharpness of the CRYODUR blades. The remarkable 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. Handcrafted in Seki, Japan

*CAUTION - rinse knives under running water, and dry by hand - do not put in dishwasher. Wood handles expand and warp with prolonged exposure to moisture (do not leave knives soaking). If knives are left uncleaned for longer periods of time with saliferous or acidic leftovers on them, stains can develop.
