Miyabi 800DP Hibana Shotoh 9cm

Just as the name suggests, 火花 Hibana in Japanese means spark, these beautiful knives have a 49-layer San Mai blade with Damascus Spark, the pattern of which is reminiscent of sparks. In addition to giving elegance and style to the knife, the Damascus Spark strengthens and protects the FC61 steel core. Additionally, FRIODURx2 hardening improves the microstructure of the steel for superior cutting performance and corrosion resistance. The triple rivet handle with central mosaic pin, typical of Japanese knives, has a curved and ergonomic reinforcement that guarantees comfort and ease of use. The elegant black and brass spacers add beauty and weight to the handle improving grip and maneuverability at the tip. Like the other Miyabi series it is made in Seki, Japan. All blades are hand sharpened with the 3-step Honbazuke process.

The Shotoh knife is a very versatile paring knife. It is ideal for cutting, cleaning and peeling fruit, vegetables and herbs.
