Henckels Miyabi Birchwood SG2 7" Santoku Knife 1020093

The Henckels Miyabi Birchwood SG2 7" Santoku Knife is a versatile kitchen blade built for precision and power. "Santoku" translates to "three virtues" in Japanese, and this knife lives up to its name—ideal for slicing, dicing, and mincing. Whether you're working through a pile of onions, slicing fresh cucumbers, or finely mincing garlic, this 7-inch all-rounder delivers sharp, clean cuts every time.

Crafted with a core of SG2 micro-carbide powder steel and hardened to 63 on the Rockwell scale, this blade offers exceptional sharpness, edge retention, and toughness. The ultra-fine edge, honed to razor-like precision, glides through ingredients with minimal effort. At 0.08" thick, the blade is thin enough for finesse cuts while maintaining enough heft to handle denser foods. The Damascus finish adds a distinct layered pattern and a touch of traditional Japanese craftsmanship, while also helping to reduce drag and sticking.

The knife’s hidden tang construction ensures a well-balanced feel in the hand, allowing for long sessions at the cutting board without fatigue. The full tang also boosts stability and strength during heavier tasks, making this santoku as functional as it is beautiful.

The handle is crafted from premium Birchwood and shaped into a traditional Japanese form that fits naturally into your grip. A mosaic pin adds a touch of elegance, while red spacers provide visual contrast and reinforce the knife's refined look. With its clean lines and smooth finish, the handle offers both beauty and performance—designed for cooks who expect their tools to be as resilient as they are refined.

This knife isn't just a kitchen tool—it's an introduction to the precision and tradition of Japanese blade-making. Handcrafted with skill and care, the Miyabi Birchwood SG2 Santoku brings top-tier materials, expert design, and cultural heritage to your culinary work. It's an essential addition to any serious cook’s knife roll, built to deliver results day in and day out. Order it today from SMKW!
