Henckels Miyabi KOH - 8" Chef's Knife
Henckels Miyabi KOH - 8" Chef's Knife
Description
This traditional Japanese knife is the counterpart to the Western chef’s knife, featuring a thin blade and exceptionally hard steel for precise, clean cuts. Handcrafted in Seki, Japan, MIYABI Koh knives combine time-honored Japanese craftsmanship with expert German engineering. Made from advanced FC61 fine carbide stainless steel, the blade delivers superior corrosion and chip resistance and retains exceptional sharpness. Ice-hardened using the FRIODURx2® process, the hand-honed blade is finished with a true katana edge. The mirror-polished blade showcases Japanese design details, while the octagon-shaped Pakkawood handle with mosaic pin offers balanced comfort for both Western chopping and Asian rocking cuts.
