Rated 5 out of 5 by from almost too beautiful to use This is the most gorgeous knife Ive ever seen. The Miyabi Black collection stands apart from all others. Starting with the handle the black ash wood is full of grain and whorls making each one a truly individual piece. The 133 layer damascus styling on the blade is truly amazing. The watermarking on the edge is a symbol of Japanese craftsmanship harkening back to the traditional Katana blades of the past. The blade is sharpened in the traditional Hombazuke method giving it a razor edge. It holds that edge for a long time and is very easy to maintain. The Santoku shape has a nice straight edge perfect for thin slices and quick chopping.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Superb knife. I am thrilled. This knife is worth every penny. The cutting ability is a dream, it is comfortable to hold in my smaller hands, and the beauty of the knife is exquisite. Everything about the knife screams top quality. I could not be happier. I also purchase the Miyabi Black honing steel in order to keep the very hard steel of this knife sharp at all times.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Most Used Tool for the Family Chef I have been a fan of Miyabi for years, and have very much enjoyed knives of the Kaizen II and Birchwood SG2 Lines. I was not sure that the price premium for the Black line would be a good value; however, it certainly is. This knife is so comfortable in the hand with perfectly manicured transitions, great balance, and the matte-finish Damascus steel resists slippage, even when wet. Obviously, this knife is extremely sharp, and been holding a great edge so far. Miyabi did it again, I truly enjoy this knife!

What are the specific usage for this knife? advantages vs other knives?

Asked by: SteveP
Santoku knives are generally used for slicing and chopping all different kinds of foods. This particular knife is great for precision cuts and dicing or mincing meats, fruits, and vegetables. The MC66 steel is significantly harder than other steels, at 66 HRC, which means that, in addition to being incredibly sharp, this knife is going to have superior edge retention.
