Birch 5000MCD Shotoh - 13 cm from the Japanese brand Miyabi. The knife has a blade length of 13 cm and is thus a smaller variant of a chef's knife but a larger variant of a paring knife. Birch 5000MCD Shotoh - 13 cm is thus a perfect all-round knife where the smaller size gives you the opportunity for more precision. Perfect for both chopping, peeling and cutting most raw materials.

The knife is made with high-tech technology, MC63 steel that has been micro-carbide pulverized and ice-hardened to an impressive 63 HCR. The result is exceptional hardness and durability. The blade has 100 layers of stainless steel that has been ground according to the traditional three-step Honbazuke method, where each step increases the sharpness and also produces a beautiful floral damask pattern that is unique to each knife. The grinding angle is 19°. The handle has a traditional Japanese D-handle that lies comfortably in the hand and is made of Masur birch from Finnish Lapland.

To take care of your knives in the best way, we recommend washing the knife by hand and wiping it with a dry cloth or towel immediately afterwards.
