Miyabi Tenmei Steak Knives, Set of 4
Miyabi Tenmei knives celebrate Japanese craftsmanship, merging past and present with traditional methods and innovative techniques. The 49-layer Damascus-style blades are forged from high-performance carbide stainless steel for superior hardness and durability. Each one is hand honed using a classic Honbazukeprocess for scalpel-like sharpness, and ice-hardened with a patented technique for exceptional corrosion-resistance. The ergonomic D-shaped PakkaWood handles promote a secure grip and fatigue-free cutting. These steak knives slice easily through even the thickest cuts of meat. A great gift, the set of four comes with a handsome storage case.

- It is not advisable to use any knife but a meat cleaver to cut through bone, as other blades can be easily damaged.
Care
- Hand-wash with warm water and mild detergent.
- Rinse and dry immediately.
- Maintain cutting edges by regularly using honing steel.
- Sharpen as needed. With regular use and honing, knives should not need sharpening more than once or twice per year.
- Sharpen knives using whetstone or knife sharpener, or have them sharpened by a professional.
- Store knives in safe place to protect edges and prevent injury.
