Miyabi Black 5000 MCD67 8″ Chef ZDP-189 (MC66) Flower Damascus Black Bigleaf Maple Burl
Experience the pinnacle of knife-making artistry with the MIYABI Black 8-Inch Chef’s Knife. Handcrafted in Seki, Japan, this elite kitchen essential merges Japanese precision craftsmanship with German engineering mastery to deliver flawless cutting performance and visual sophistication. Perfect for every kitchen task—from mincing shallots and dicing apples to slicing tenderloin and chopping vegetables—this chef’s knife is the ultimate blend of beauty, balance, and power.
At the heart of the blade lies ZDP-189 (MC66) micro-carbide powder steel, renowned for its ultra-fine grain structure and extreme hardness. Protected by 133 layers of Damascus steel, the blade boasts both remarkable durability and striking flower-patterned elegance. MIYABI’s CRYODUR® ice-hardening process ensures maximum sharpness retention, while the three-step Honbazuke hand-honing method creates a razor-sharp 9.5°–12° katana edge worthy of the finest Japanese swords.
The artistry continues with the handle, crafted from North American Bigleaf maple burl, uniquely dyed and patterned so that no two knives are alike. Its traditional Japanese D-shaped design, along with a rounded spine and heel, ensures effortless control and all-day comfort. The MIYABI Black stands as a true statement piece—a masterwork of steel, form, and function.
