Miyabi Kaizen 7-inch Hollow Edge Santoku Knife is rated 4.9 out of 5 by 103.
Rated 5 out of 5 by from A great Santoku knife I love the Kaizen collection, I love the aesthetic of these Japanese knives and how beautiful the 64 layers of VG10 steel is on the blade. Even though the layers are pronounced in that beautiful flower Damascus design, it’s also subtitled in comparison to some other Miyabi blades. I love this santoku, it is the perfect all purpose knife. This knife is a workhorse in your kitchen for all sorts of tasks, mincing, slicing, chopping. The handle feels great in hand, contours nicely and the transition from handle to blade is comfortable. I love how durable this knife is, and that I can enjoy this very sharp Japanese knife for years to come.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Asian Chef's Knife The Miyabi Santoku comes in two sizes, 7 and 5 inches. My preference is the 7, but I have many family members who prefer the 5. Either way, this is a terrific chopping knife. The width of a santoku, from tip to heel make it extremely stable to chop thick foods - a large roast, a butternut squash, an eggplant. The sharpness of the Kaizen also makes it easy to make elegant thin slices too. The hollow divots (called a Granton edge) reduce friction and allow food to slip away easily. Adding to the enjoyment of this exceptional cutting tool is its beauty. The Damascus-style polishing showing the layers and the linen Micarta handle with finishing details combine to make using and owning this knife a joy. Hone regularly. Hand wash. This knife will be sharp and beautiful for a lifetime.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great Asian knife, cuts everything! What I love the most with this Miyabi Kaizen knife, chops quietly for its sharpness and functionality is awesome..!!! I'd use this every day and never needed a lot of sharpening because it stays sharp as long that you honed it once in a while.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from great blade I love every inch of this knife. The micarta handle is very smooth and comfortable to hold. The blade is very sharp. The acute angle and thinness of the blade gives straight thin and accurate cuts. The Damascus style layering gives it such a unique look. The VG10 steel stays very sharp and is easy to maintain. All the hallmarks of quality Japanese cutlery is here including the watermarked edge as found in classic Katana blades.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Best knife I have ever owned! I have never had the pleasure of owning a premium chefs knife. Having recently purchased the Miyabi Kaizen 7" Hollow Edge Santoku Knife, I have upped my game to really improve my knife work. I now look forward to using this knife at any chance I can get. Slicing, chopping and butchering are just a few uses I have already applied to the purchase. My next purchase will be to dive into the care for this knife and all the Miyabi knives I will purchase in the future. An excellent purchase!
