Using traditional Samurai forging techniques since the 14th century the city of Seki is the birthplace of the Miyabi brand, taking 100 steps and 42 days to create each blade. The manufacturing techniques employed produce knives with durable and precise cutting edges which is the foundation of the Miyabi brand. The Miyabi 5000FCD Santoku Knife has a plain edge and is 18cm in length. The octagonal pakka wood handle gives a well balanced and comfortable grip with a wonderful mosaic pin providing a wonderfully aesthetic finish to a beautifully crafted blade. The Ice- hardened FC61 steel used for the FRIODUR blade of the Santoku is wrapped in 48 layers of steel to create a Damascus design. Honed on both sides using the Honbazuke technique making it ideal as a multi-purpose blade. Santoku is the 3 in 1 blade for meat, fish and vegetables, " San" which means 3 in Japanese represents its versatility in use across all the three main food groups. This being 18cm in blade length makes it the perfectly sized Santoku within the 5000FCD range. The blade as its name suggests makes it the most versatile and effective blade for almost any use within the kitchen.
