Description
Handcrafted in Seki, Japan, MIYABI Evolution merges German engineering expertise with Japanese craftsmanship for the utmost control and accuracy in every cut. This 7-inch hollow edge rocking santoku is perfect for all kitchen tasks and rocking cuts. Santoku - Japanese for "three virtues" - excels at three cutting techniques: expertly mince garlic, slice cucumber, and dice onions with this Asian all-rounder. The hollow edge features a blade that has small indentations, known as grantons, that prevent food from sticking while cutting.
Crafted from superior quality fine carbide steel that is often used in razor blades, the knives offer the signature sharpness for which Japanese knives are known. A sophisticated six-step ice hardening technique unlocks the steel’s full potential guaranteeing these FRIODURx2® blades boast remarkable initial sharpness, cutting edge retention, corrosion resistance, and chip-resistant toughness.
Beautifully polished to a mirror finish, the blades have a katana edge reminiscent of the samurai swords forged in the same town centuries ago. Curved for comfort and thicker at the end to prevent slipping, the triple-rivet handles encourage fatigue-free cutting. A rounded spine, heel, and bolster, plus nine hand-finishing steps ensure these handles have unsurpassed ergonomics.
- FC61 fine carbide steel for razor-like sharpness
- Authentic thin Japanese blade profile

- FRIODUR® blade, ice-hardened to Rockwell 61
- Mirror-finish blade with sandblasted katana edge

My go-to workhorse. Stays sharp
I. Have owned this knife for over three years and it is still my favorite knife in my kitchen. It is the only Japanese knife I own-all my other knives are Cutco, but I use this one nearly 90% of the time. It works for everything. I like that the weight ks between that of a western knife and a Japanese knife—sturdy enough to feel strong, but not so heavy as to tire you through long use. I find I need to sharpen it once a year. Regarding the rust spots-if you dry the knife with a towel and put it away after each use, it will not rust. ALWAYS hand wash and dry this knife… it is an investment and should be treated as such. Overall I couldn’t be happier with this knife.

A great Japanese rocking santoku
This is a great Japanese knife. I really like the feel of the handle on this blade, it’s very comfortable and contours nicely. This blade has a nice lighter weight to it, but is very sharp. This is a great knife if you want to go from Western style knives to Asian, with the Evolution, it brings the two styles together, making it a much more durable Japanese knife. The rocking aspect of this santoku is great, really an all purpose knife that you can slice, chop and mince extremely well with and with the blade having the grantons, that really helps with food coming off your blade much easier.

I love Rocking
A rocking santoku is the perfect knife for me. I am a rocker when I cut up veggies and this design helps me be super efficient. The incredibly sharp, razor edge slices through an onion so perfectly that there are no tears. The "dimples" on the blade help keep food from sticking.
Evolution is an authentic Japanese knife; much of the process is done by hand. It is made from FC61 steel which is very hard (think great edge retention) but also extremely durable (very chip resistant). The curved handle is more like a German knife, especially with the durable 3 rivet design.

Rock or chop
I was already a fan of the Evolution line. The Japanese blade and the handle are a perfect combination. But this rocking santoku blade is amazing. It doesn't matter if you prefer to rock or chop. This blade offers a very fluid motion for both.

Rocking FC61 blade!
This MIyabi Evolution is made and handcrafted in Japan, fabricated from revolutionary FC61 fine carbide steel, Ice-hardened FRIODURx2 blade offers exceptional durability, cutting edge retention, and corrosion resistance.
I have experience the beauty of sharpness with the Miyabi Evolution series, I owned a prep knife myself and it is scalpel-like sharpness and comfortably in the hand.
Time-tested German engineering meets Japanese craftsmanship.

Recently purchased this knife after seeing my best friend use it. Love
the versatility of being able to use it for both cutting with a rocking motion, as well was using the traditional Japanese up and down chopping motion. Very comfortable, and the FC61 steel that it is made with is very durable which adds to the benefit of working with this knife.
This is a must have for anyone that loves to work in the kitchen with great tools!

Great combination of east and west
I love using santoku knives because I like the wider blade they have so that I can move more food from the cutting board to the pan at one time, but I also like the curve of a chef's knife, which is typically a western style knife, so it is easy to use a rocking/slicing motion and easy cut quickly and in one motion. This is a great compromise between those 2 styles and the handle is comfortable.

Asian knife for right or left handed people
This is a really cool knife! I can use it like my chef knife because there is a decent curve to the blade but the back half of the blade is fairly flat for easy chopping. It had those lovely little hollow spots that release food easily. The handle on the evolution line is so elegant, can be used for left or right handed people and is very non slip as well. Great deal on a great new style knife!
