SHOP CASE KNIVESPrecision meets craftsmanship in the Henckels Miyabi 6000MCT Artisan 3.5" Paring Knife—a tool designed for detailed prep work and built to endure. Whether you're peeling fruit, deveining shrimp, or crafting decorative garnishes, this paring knife delivers the pinpoint control needed for the most delicate kitchen tasks. At just 3.5 inches, the ultra-sharp blade offers agility without compromising cutting power, making it one of the most vital knives in any serious kitchen lineup.
Forged from micro-carbide MC63 powder steel and hardened to an impressive 63 on the Rockwell scale, the blade holds a razor-sharp edge with remarkable durability. It features a sandblasted katana edge and is hand-honed using the traditional three-step Honbazuke method, which ensures a scalpel-like sharpness straight out of the box. The mirror-polished finish, paired with a hand-hammered tsuchime surface, adds both aesthetic appeal and functional performance by reducing drag and helping food release from the blade more easily.
This knife isn’t just a cutting tool—it’s a statement piece. The D-shaped handle is crafted from striking rosewood Pakkawood, offering a warm, organic feel and a secure grip for both precision and comfort. Accented with red and brass spacers, a decorative mosaic pin, and a polished stainless steel end cap, the handle blends traditional Japanese design with European durability and balance. The concealed tang construction adds strength without adding bulk, keeping the knife lightweight at just 3.04 ounces and highly maneuverable.
With an overall length of 8 inches and a slim 0.04-inch blade thickness, the Miyabi Artisan 3.5" Paring Knife is built for intricate cutting jobs where control is everything. Whether you're a professional chef or a passionate home cook, this knife will elevate your prep work and serve you for years with proper care. Order it today from SMKW!
