    I purchased at a store in Allen Texas and I was sold the moment I tested the knife in the store. The cuts are smooth and easy and makes my food prep a breeze. For a home cook this was a splurge, but this knife was well worth the price.

    beautiful knife, you can tell it's hand sharpened because the bevel isn't symmetrical left and right. It arrived push-cut sharp.

    This is the second Birchwood chef knife I have purchased. Mom took the first one the moment she laid her eyes on it, and had to get a second one. Both of us love this knife, and you just have to be careful not to cut bones or frozen stuff with it.

    Extremely sharp out of the box. I have been using Japanese knives for 8 years. Couple of shuns, Tojiro and yaxells. Also own a miyabi kaizen 9 inch chef knife. But the birchwood triumphs them all in terms of craftsmanship, looks and sharpness.

    As a passionate home cook, I’ve been using the Miyabi Birchwood SG2 knife for over a year now, and it’s become an essential part of my kitchen. The blade’s SG2 micro-carbide powder steel is not only incredibly sharp but also remarkably resilient. I’ve put it through countless chopping sessions, and it still glides through vegetables effortlessly. The birchwood handle feels comfortable in my hand, and the weight distribution is spot-on. I’ve noticed that with proper care—handwashing, thorough drying, and regular honing—the knife maintains its edge beautifully. It’s like having a reliable culinary companion by my side

    I have used Miyabi knives since I was first introduced to them in 2021. These knives are the finest knives I ever used, and in my past job at Sur La Table, I had access to many knives, but Miyabi are the knives I fell in love with! Long live Miyabi!!! BTW, I own the Birchwood 8” Chef Knife and the 7” Nakiri. I plan to purchase the 9” Slicer and either the 3.5” or 5” Pairing Knives.
