MIYABI 4000FC 5.5" Shotoh Knife
The MIYABI 4000FC Shotoh is a versatile Japanese knife designed for peeling, cleaning, and chopping fruits and vegetables with ease. With a 140 mm (5.5") blade, this Shotoh combines Japanese tradition and German engineering for exceptional performance and beauty. Handcrafted in Seki, Japan, it is a knife that embodies precision, sharpness, and elegance.
Superior Blade Performance
The blade is made from FC61 fine carbide stainless steel, ice-hardened using the FRIODUR® x2 process to reach 61 Rockwell hardness. This results in excellent durability, corrosion resistance, and long-lasting edge retention. The Honbazuke hand-honing technique gives the blade a razor-sharp edge of 9.5–12°, while the Katana-style cut pays tribute to traditional Japanese sword-making craftsmanship.
Elegant and Functional Handle
The handle is crafted from Pakkawood, impregnated and dimensionally stable for durability. Its octagonal shape ensures a secure and ergonomic grip, while the mosaic pin adds a refined detail. With a rounded spine and heel, this knife is designed for comfort during long prep sessions.

I’m a salmon and trout angler. I was happy with using this tool to pin bone pink salmon as it was able to pull two out at a time. I tried it on a fresh chinook last night though and wasn’t very impressed, I think needle nose pliers would have been more effective.
Received my carbon stainless steel wok extremely fast , customer support Natalie was extremely helpful with my questions and even provided resources to help me. 10/10, amazing site I can't believe I was hesitant at first. Will definitely be buying again from here, much better than big box stores - extremely high quality product.
Outstanding service. Super fast delivery. Awesome quality knife. Everything as advertised. TOP GUN!

MIYABI 4000 FC 9.5-Inch Gyutoh Knife – Brown Handle
The Hayami 130 arrived promptly and very sharp, one of the sharpest knives I've ever received from a vendor. It's convenient to have it razor sharp out of the box. I use petty knives a lot, just above my use of the cleaver. This knife is beautiful and extremely functional. The next petty knife will be about 100mm.
Super knife . Shipping was fast . Got them after a couple of days only to Montreal

My partner and I were so amazed by how we can already slice our fruits and vegetables with ease. We plan to collect all knife types!
It's like cutting through a cloud. Worth the money.
Perfect knife size for an all purpose kitchen knife and high quality. Light and sharp, has become my favorite knife. Customer service top notch when finding a sheath to protect and fit the knife.
