More info
The 5000MCD series is one of the finest knife ranges ever made by the Japanese brand MIYABI. The kitchen knives from this series are the perfect combination of high quality, excellent performance, and superb aesthetics. Made in Japan, their sleek design and their extraordinary cutting performance make the Miyabi 5000MCD knives the dream of any cook!
For example, if you love preparing meat dishes, a knife like the Miyabi 5000MCD Chutoh Knife 16cm can be of great use in your kitchen! If the name confuses you, "chutoh" is the Japanese term used for meat knives. If this weren't a Japanese knife, it would probably be called slicing or carving knife. Nevertheless, whatever name you call it, one thing is sure: this knife cuts meat like no other!
Its remarkable cutting performance is only possible thanks to its top quality blade. The 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.
The creation of the blade followed a very particular process in which a steel plate is created via the combination of 101 layers of damask steel. The overlapping layers of steel cause the original wavy lines that you can see on the blade's surface. This technique not only enhances the solidity of the blade but also the aesthetics of the knife.
As the perfect complement for the beauty of the blade, the handle 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 in Japanese cutlery, provides an optimum balance, and to embellish even more its look, the centre of the handle is nicely decorated with a mosaic pin.
Care tips: 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.
