5-inch Chef’s Knife Compact, Fine Edge

Inspired by the Japanese word for “soaring”, Hisho is designed to take you to new heights, embrace new opportunities, and elevate with purpose. The MIYABI Hisho collection is marked by a wide-blade style designed to maximize knuckle clearance and is perfectly proportioned for cutting through large produce and piles of food.

At its core, Hisho is crafted from resilient FC61 super steel, known for its durability and strength. The blade is finished with a rippled, hand-hammered pattern that acts as a distinct mark of the artisan’s hand – no two blades are alike.

This 5.25-inch prep knife is a compact all-rounder knife for precision prep work in-hand and on the cutting board. It’s perfect for chopping herbs, slicing meat, and dicing vegetables.
