VG10 Japanese Steel has been around for quite sometime. Makes for a very stable core and additional wraps stabilize further and create beautiful Damascus pattern. Micarta grips look like wood but last much longer.

I love this Miyabi line for the superior quality and for the beauty as well. This line is made of a super steel, VG10 and has a hardness of 60. What that means is that the knives are very sharp and have been through a hardening process that makes them super durable. The thin blade profile is typical of quality Japanese knives and they are sharpened to a more acute angle than German knives. The Damascus design on the blade is unique and is the product of many artisans work in layering of metals and hand finishing. The black micarta handle is not only beautiful, but it is resistant to moisture. This set includes some of the most used knives in the kitchen!

This set is most certainly bound to be your favorite set you have had from Japanese cutlery or even Miyabi. It has a beautiful Damascus pattern and made from VG10 steel. These knives are scalpel-like!

This beautiful set of Japanese knives has features that are true to its Japanese heritage. The D shaped handle, with the signature Miyabi logo on the end cap, rests comfortably in the palm of your hand. It's made out of a very durable material called micarta; which is a linen and resin mixture. It's awesome because you get the look and feel of wood with the durable of a synthetic material. The blade is a 65 layer Damascus that protects the VG10 core. This makes it very hard which gives it incredible edge retention, plus durability. If you want an authentic Japanese knife, end your search with Miyabi. They are made and sold in Japan as the premium knife.

The 65 layers of Damascus flower pattern keeps foods from not sticking and also looks amazing! Comes with scissors and a few extra slots for your other fav knives! Quality is bar-none, top-of-the-line!

Great essentials set, I like that the block has empty slots so you can customize the block as you feel fit to your cooking needs. VG10 hold a sharp edge for a really long time.

I bought the santoku knife from this line a few years ago and its my favorite. the problem with buying one knife, its hard to justify getting a second when you upgrade to the block. This set is smaller than the other one and Im not duplicating anything. This is a beautiful addition to my counter! I live how effortlessly the steel on these blades cuts and maintains a crisp smooth sharp edge. Well worth the money to have something so beautiful have such amazing practical quality

Kaizen was my first authentic Japanese knife. Love the multi-layered blade and black wood-like handle. Blades are exceptionally sharp and the handle is comfortable with a moisture resistant grip. This block set contains a fantastic assortment with additional slots to customize with other Kaizen knives.

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.
