Designed to glide effortlessly through crusty bread, soft tomatoes, and delicate pastries, the Miyabi Kaizen II 9.5″ Bread Knife delivers clean, tear-free cuts every time. Combining traditional Japanese craftsmanship with modern steel technology, it’s built for lasting precision and elegance.

Its finely serrated edge, honed via the Honbazuke method, ensures precise, effortless slicing with minimal crumbs or tearing.

The D-shaped black pakkawood handle, complete with a mosaic pin and stainless steel end cap, provides a secure, comfortable grip. Handcrafted in Seki, Japan—renowned for its centuries-old blade-making tradition—this bread knife is built to last a lifetime.
