The Miyabi Koh line is stunning and performs as well as any other Miyabi knife. miyabi knives are known the world-over for their thin blade, super-sharp angle, made from German steel and engineering, yet crafted by Japanese artisans who take great pride in mastering the art of knives! These are all ice-hardened so you know they are sharp and extremely durable. Beautiful handle that contrasts the shiny blade of Koh. I prefer the 6" Chef knife, as it is a bit smaller in my hand.
