More info
The Miyabi 5000MCD series offers kitchen knives that are the perfect combination of high quality, excellent performance, and superb aesthetics. These knives are made in Japan by one of the most prestigious brands in the industry: Miyabi. Their sleek design and their extraordinary cutting performance make the Miyabi 5000MCD knives the dream of any cook!
For example, the Miyabi 5000MCD Gyuto Knife 20cm is a top quality knife that not only can help you perform all types of cuts in wide variety of foods but also will add a touch of elegance to your kitchen's equipment. In case the name confuses you, gyuto is the Japanese term used for "chef knives," so this is indeed a Japanese chef knife, and a very good one by the way!
With just looking at the blade, you know that this knife is something special. The blade's core is enriched with Micro-Carbide MC63 that give the blade an extraordinary solidity. Moreover, following the CRYODUR technique, the blade was ice-hardened with temperatures reaching as low as -196°C. The final result is a blade with a high level of hardness of 63 HRC in the Rockwell scale.
Moreover, the creation of the blade followed a very particular process in which a steel plate is created via the combination of 101 layers of soft and hard steel. This is what is commonly known as a damascus effect, and it is why you can see the original wavy lines on the blade's surface. The overlapping layers of damask steel end up not only enhancing the solidity of the blade but also the aesthetics of the knife.
The handle is also worthy of admiration, because it complements perfectly the beauty of the blade It is made of birchwood, which is a lightweight material that feels comfortable in your hand. The D-shape of the handle, which is a traditional characteristic of Japanese knives, provides an optimum balance, and to embellish even more its look, the centre of the handle is nicely decorated with a mosaic pin.
To preserve the astonishing quality and look of this knife, it is important that you take proper care of it. To do so, you should always wash this knife by hand and dry it immediately after use. In addition, for whenever you need to sharpen the blade (which won't be that often), make sure to use only whetstones with fine grains. The use of a sharpening steel could end up damaging the blade.
Do not settle with just one and finish your kitchen knives' collection by discovering all the knives of the Miyabi 5000MCD series at MyChefKnives.co.uk!

Work of art |
| - -. on 02/09/2018 | The knife is a work of art. Beautiful birch wooden handle, very comfortable to hold, the knife is perfectly balanced and the blade is as sharp as......**** or very sharp and doesn’t seem to dull with the use it gets from me. I also purchased other Miyabe knives to make a complete set, probably overkill, but the comment above can relate to each knife. Not forgetting that Mychefsknives was also the cheapest site to purchase these beauties. Highly recommended. 10 stars. |
