What I love the most with this Miyabi Kaizen knife, chops quietly for its sharpness and functionality is awesome..!!! 
I'd use this every day and never needed a lot of sharpening because it stays sharp as long that you honed it once in a while.
A VG10 super steel Japanese knife, scalpel-like sharpness with 65-layer Damascus flower design with katana edge. This exquisite, hand-hammered effect helps prevent food from sticking. Offers exceptional durability, cutting edge retention, and corrosion resistance.
Hand-honed blade finished with a true katana edge and a CRYODUR blade, ice-hardened to Rockwell 60. The blade is balanced by a refined D-shaped handle made of black linen Micarta handle.
