Miyabi Evolution Knife Block Set

FC61 fine carbide steel is a high-performance alloy that allows for a much thinner, scalpel-like edge. Because it undergoes a double ice-hardening process, the steel maintains its sharpness significantly longer than typical stainless steel while remaining resistant to corrosion.

No, these knives must be hand washed. The high-heat environment and harsh detergents of a dishwasher can damage the precision-sharpened edge and potentially compromise the handle materials over time.

The thin, authentic Japanese profile reduces resistance when slicing through ingredients, allowing for cleaner, more precise cuts. Combined with the rounded spine and heel, the design is intended to minimize fatigue during repetitive prep work.

POM (polyoxymethylene) is a high-density, durable plastic that is resistant to moisture and heat. The triple-riveted construction ensures the handle remains securely attached to the blade tang for a balanced, stable grip during use.

The Miyabi Evolution series is handcrafted in Seki, Japan. This location is world-renowned for its centuries-old tradition of sword-making and precision blade craftsmanship.

No, these knives arrive with a factory-honed, dry-sharpened edge that is ready for immediate use. Because of the high-quality steel and ice-hardening process, they will retain this sharpness for an extended period before requiring maintenance.
