The only paring knife you’ll ever need

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This super sharp and lightweight paring knife is easy to handle and as precise as you would expect from a Japanese cutting tool. Makes great cuts and super versatile. A must in any chef’s kitchen!

Work of art in the kitchen

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I'd never owned a knife of this quality before...but now I have the 3.5" paring knife as well as the 5.5" prep knife, both Miyabi Kaizen II. The feel in the hand is incredible. The blades are a work of art and also incredibly hard and sharp!
