Product information
The 5000MCD series from Miyabi combines the beauty and sharpness of Japanese knives. These knives are made in Seki, which has been Japan's epicenter for sword forging since the 14th century. With this beautiful medium Chutoh knife, you have complete control and precision work becomes child's play. That is why numerous professional chefs from all over the world swear by the 5000MCD series.
A unique handle made of Masur Birch wood
The handle of this medium Chutoh has the traditional D-shape that is typical of Japanese knives. The knife lies comfortably in the hand and is a real eye-catcher in the kitchen thanks to its handle made of Masur Birch wood. This type of wood is highly sought after for handles and the only wood from which a Fabergé egg was ever made.
Extremely sharp and hard
The blade, which is made of MicroCarbide MC63 powder steel, is embedded in one hundred layers of steel of two different hardnesses. The blade has an impressive Rockwell hardness of 63 due to a special ice-hardening process. Thanks to the honbazuke sharpening technique, the knife is as sharp as a scalpel. To achieve this sharpness, the blade is sharpened twice between rotating stones and then polished on a leather wheel. The subtle grind elegantly contrasts with the floral damask pattern of the blade. Furthermore, the relief in the stainless steel and the fine red lines provide an extra decorative effect.
Fillet knife in Japanese style
The Chutoh 15cm from Miyabi can be compared to the European fillet knife. It is therefore an ideal knife for cutting or slicing meat or fish. The knife has a perfectly balanced weight between the handle and the blade, so it lies super stable in your hand.
How to maintain the Miyabi 5000mcd 15 Chutoh
This Japanese knife is a very special product and therefore deserves to be cared for with care and attention. We advise you to wash it only by hand, maintain it well, and sharpen it with a whetstone or Horl knife sharpener. Do not use it on glass, ceramic, or stone cutting boards.
Pros
CRYODUR ice-hardened steel blades are extremely sturdy and stay sharp longer
The knife has a core of MicroCarbide MC63 powder steel surrounded by 100 layers of stainless steel. This makes the blade very hard (approx. 63 Rockwell) and keeps it razor sharp for a long time.
