Kaizen 5.25-inch Prep Knife

Discover the Kaizen 5.25-inch Prep Knife by MIYABI. Works of culinary art, MIYABI knives combine German engineering with the unique characteristics of Japanese samurai swords—exceptional sharpness, tradition, craftsmanship, and high performance—for the ultimate cutting experience.

The Kaizen 5.25-inch Prep Knife features a double FRIODUR® ice-hardened blade for improved corrosion resistance and astonishing durability. Artisans hand-hone the blade using the venerable four-step Honbazuke method. The blade is balanced by a substantial D-shaped handle made of black pakkawood, which offers a comfortable grip for stress-free cutting.

This remarkable prep knife is handcrafted in Seki, Japan, a city renowned for the highest quality cutlery production. Use it for a range of tasks, such as slicing meats and cheeses, and mincing garlic.
