Miyabi Kaizen 3.5 Inch Straight Paring Knife

The word Kaizen means “change for the better,” and that philosophy rings true with the Miyabi Kaizen 3.5 Inch Straight Paring Knife. Traditional Japanese artistry combines with modern technology and innovative techniques to create the best paring knife for professional or home chefs. This knife leaves others in the dust when it comes to function, versatility, durability and precise sharpness.

The Miyabi Kaizen knife has a concealed tang and a fine-edge Japanese blade profile. The blades are hand-honed using the historic three-step Honbazuke method. This time-honored method creates a 9.5 to 12-degree angle that provides precision cutting and attention to detail whether peeling fruits and vegetables, trimming potatoes, extracting seeds from fruit or cutting garlic cloves, herbs and shallots.

Designed with a particularly robust stainless steel core that is protected by a 64-layer flower Damascus pattern, the Miyabi Kaizen paring knife is a true workhorse in the kitchen and handles everything from everyday meal prep to whipping up extravagant dinner party menus. Its CRYODUR blades are ice-hardened to provide an exceptional level of sharpness and durability. The blade hits a high note of 60 on the Rockwell hardness scale to ensure endurance, longevity and corrosion resistance for all types of cutting needs.

Crafted of black linen Micarta with a wood-like texture, the D-shaped handle of the Miyabi Kaizen knife offers comfort, ergonomics and a non-slip grip for tireless paring tasks. Design accents on this handy paring knife include a mosaic pin on the handle and an embossed Miyabi logo on the blade. This small but mighty knife adds a versatile, functional and attractive touch to a professional or home kitchen’s cutlery collection.
