The Miyabi 1002031 Black 5000MCD is a refined example of Japanese knife craftsmanship, handcrafted in Seki, Japan. The blade is forged from MC66 micro‑carbide powdered steel and CRYODUR® ice‑hardened to an impressive 66 HRC, delivering exceptional sharpness, durability, and edge retention. Surrounding the core are 132 additional layers of steel, creating a striking 133‑layer floral Damascus pattern that enhances both performance and visual appeal.

Each knife is hand-honed using the traditional three‑step Honbazuke process, producing an ultra‑sharp edge with a precise 9.5–12° angle per side (19–24° total) for effortless, controlled cutting. The authentic Japanese blade profile ensures excellent balance and precision.

The handle is crafted in a traditional D‑shape for ergonomic comfort and reduced hand fatigue during extended use. Made from elegant maple wood and finished with a mosaic pin and stainless steel end cap, it provides a secure grip while beautifully contrasting with the Damascus blade.

Designed for discerning chefs and knife enthusiasts, the Miyabi Black 5000MCD combines artistry, precision, and long‑lasting performance. Hand wash only.
