Birchwood SG2 8" Chef's Knife

More than meets the eye the potent core of SG2 micro-carbide powder steel is protected by 100 layers of steel. MIYABI’s innovative CRYODUR ice-hardening process locks in the blade’s long-lasting sharpness. Beneath its beautiful exterior the flower Damascus pattern provides exceptional durability.

The scalpel-like blade is complemented by an equally striking and comfortable Karelian (Masur) Birch handle. A prized material for knife handles Karelian Birch is also the only wood ever used in a Fabergé egg. Exquisite and ergonomic MIYABI Birchwood knives feel as good as they look.
