The Ultimate All-Rounder: Precision Performance in a Compact Form At Grand Fête, we believe that the most versatile tools often come in the most agile packages. The Miyabi Evolution 5.25-inch Prep Knife is a compact powerhouse designed for tasks that require more finesse than a Chef’s knife but more leverage than a Paring knife. Handcrafted in Seki, Japan, this "mini-chef's knife" is the perfect hybrid for dicing shallots, trimming proteins, or slicing small fruits with surgical precision. Why the Evolution Prep Knife is a Kitchen Essential The Evolution series is engineered for the modern cook who wants the legendary, scalpel-like sharpness of Japanese steel with the approachable durability of a "stain-free" blade. Revolutionary FC61 Steel: Forged from FC61 fine carbide steel, this blade achieves a 61 Rockwell hardness. It provides incredible edge retention and is tough enough for high-volume prep while remaining resistant to chips and corrosion. FRIODUR® x2 Ice-Hardening: Miyabi’s proprietary ice-hardening process refines the steel's molecular structure, resulting in a blade that is exceptionally hard, durable, and remarkably sharp. Mirror-Polished Katana Edge: Each blade features a stunning mirror finish and a sandblasted Katana edge, a tribute to the samurai swords historically forged in the same town centuries ago. Engineered for Comfort and Agile Control Whether you have smaller hands or simply prefer a more maneuverable tool for technical cuts, the Evolution series focuses on hand health and ergonomic balance. Ergonomic Triple-Riveted Handle: Moving away from the traditional Japanese D-shape, this series features a curved, triple-riveted handle that nestles comfortably in the hand, providing a secure, familiar grip. Honbazuke Honed Edge: Artisans hand-finish each blade using a traditional three-step process, resulting in a razor-sharp 9.5 to 12° edge that glides through ingredients with zero resistance. The Perfect In-Between Size: At 5.25 inches, this blade excels at technical tasks like deveining shrimp, butterflying chicken breasts, or slicing through artisanal cheeses with total control. Product Specifications: Blade Length: 5.25 inches (130mm) Steel Type: FC61 Fine Carbide Stainless Steel Hardness: 61 Rockwell (HRC) Handle Style: Triple-riveted glass-fiber enhanced POM Origin: Handcrafted in Seki, Japan Care: Hand wash only to preserve the edge and finish Taste Life Together From intricate garnishes to daily meal prep, the Miyabi Evolution Prep Knife brings a new level of ease to your kitchen.
