How this sits on Kitchenware Authority

Miyabi lists this as Artisan in SG2 Powder Steel (8 inch blade) at 8.5 oz from Japan. Published warranty: Limited Lifetime.

Care on this site

Hand wash and dry immediately. Use wood, rubber, or plastic boards — not glass, stone, or ceramic. Skip bones, frozen food, and twisting the edge out of dense produce. Store with a saya, edge guard, or magnetic strip. Sharpen on a whetstone or with a qualified service; pull-through gadgets are a poor fit for thin Japanese geometry.
