The 13 cm Shotoh knife from the Miyabi 5000MCD series is a small but highly efficient cutting tool for precision tasks in the kitchen. With its extra thin but robust blade, the knife is ideal for slicing, peeling and preparing fruits and vegetables with great accuracy.

The core of the knife is made of MicroCarbide MC63 powder steel and encased in 100 layers of stainless steel in different hardnesses, creating the characteristic and unique damask pattern. This gives each knife its own unique look and is a functional work of art in its own right.

The blade is honed using the Honbazuke technique, where it is manually honed to a symmetrical cutting angle of 19°. This provides incredible sharpness and ensures clean, controlled cuts - every time.

Thanks to CRYODUR® ice hardening at -196°C, the blade achieves a hardness of 63 Rockwell. This provides excellent cutting performance, high flexibility and effective corrosion resistance.

The handle is crafted in light Masur wood with a natural structure and lively grain. Its D-shape provides optimal ergonomics and the perfect balance between blade and handle ensures the knife sits comfortably and steadily in the hand - even in demanding tasks.

The Miyabi 5000MCD Shotoh 13 cm is an elegant and sharp specialty tool for those who want a knife with precision, beauty and performance in a class of its own.
