Hidden beneath this multi-layered blade and black wood-like handle, is an exceptionally sharp knife. The 6 inch blade is very versatile being that it can be used much like a paring knife and is more maneuverable than a larger chef knife. Comfortable moisture resistant handle provides effortless cutting.

This Kaizen 6" utility knife can do more than its size. The round handle feels like D-shape is enjoyable. It is great to cut and slice medium size food, great for meat, vegetables and meats. This is a go-to knife for me because I like how I it feels great in my hand and cutting edge is exceptional.

High quality, advance design. this is a beautiful, sharp, durable knife. The micarta handle is as pretty to look at as it is to hold. Very comfortable to hold. You will not shed a tear slicing an onion with this beauty. It will slice the most pristine, fine layers of fruits and vegetables. I use this for slicing and mincing. Especially herbs and delicate vegetables. such as scallions or leeks.

This is a really great Japanese Utility knife. I love the aesthetic of these Japanese knives and how beautiful the 64 layers of VG10 steel is on the blade. Even though the layers are pronounced in that beautiful flower Damascus design, it's also more subtitled in comparison to the Miyabi Kaizen II blades.The Kaizen has a beautiful blade and the Micarta wood handle feels really smooth in hand, and has a nice roundedness to it. With the blade having 64 layers of steel, you can really feel how much of a difference that makes when slicing fruits and veggies. A smaller blade size than a slicer knife, but still a thinner profile, which is great for trying to slice meat, fish, and fruits. A great utility knife to have in the kitchen.

I find myself using this knife more than the 8" chef knife for the tasks in my kitchen. Extremely sharp and often I try to make one slice of the vegetable papper thin which the blade handles easily.

When will my item arrive?
Once shipped, items usually arrive within 3-5 business days. While UPS and FedEx are our carriers for smaller items, be aware that larger items and orders are shipped via freight. The freight process is a bit more complicated than what we've all come to expect for small parcels, so it's important that you're prepared and understand what's required of you well before delivery day.
- Most freight products ship on a pallet
- Some carriers will call to schedule a delivery window, while others will deliver the shipment to a reasonably accessible location closest to your residence (their goal is to deliver as near a garage door as they can).
- We'll specify which process you can expect in your shipping confirmation email.
For carriers that schedule delivery appointments:
Carriers that schedule delivery appointments require you to be home for delivery and provide your signature. The delivery is made with a semi-truck with lift gate services, and the shipment is dropped off at the curb. If you authorize the shipping company to leave the delivery without a signature, BBQGuys can't be held responsible for damages that occur during delivery. As complicated as this process may seem, we've only scratched the surface here — please review our detailed guide to freight delivery so there are no surprises when a freight shipment heads your way.
For carriers that deliver without an appointment:
Carriers that deliver without an appointment don't require you to be home or set up a delivery window, and you aren't required to sign for the pallet(s). Instead of scheduling an appointment, arranging your schedule to be home for the delivery, and signing to confirm receipt, you can sit back and let your items come to you. If you're home at the time of the drop-off, you can request the driver place your delivery in the garage; if you're out of the house, the driver will leave it near the garage or doorstep.
