Kind of between a paring and utility knife size but great SG2 steel and a good deal on the birchwood series.

Description from the Zwilling website:

Top-of-the-line MIYABI Birchwood is a work of culinary art. Both blade and handle are crafted from the most precious materials, which shape their striking appearance. More than meets the eye, the potent core of SG2 micro-carbide powder steel is protected by 100 layers of steel. MIYABI's innovative, ice-hardening process locks in the long-lasting sharpness of the CRYODUR blades. Beneath its beautiful exterior, the flower Damascus pattern provides added durability. The scalpel-like blade is complemented by an equally striking Karelian (Masur) Birch handle. A prized material for knife handles, Karelian Birch is also the only wood ever used in a Faberge egg. Exquisite and ergonomic, MIYABI Birchwood knives feel as good as they look. Handcrafted in Seki, Japan

- G2 micro-carbide powder steel
- Authentic thin Japanese blade profile
- Hand-honed using the three-step Honbazuke process to a 9.5 to 12 degree edge
- CRYODUR blade, ice-hardened to Rockwell 63
- 101-layer flower Damascus design with katana edge
- Traditional Japanese Karelian (Masur) Birch handle
- Rounded spine and heel
- Handcrafted in Seki, Japan

I still regret not buy this knife months ago when it was on sale for $50. But I think $90 might still be a little to rich for me. Temping tho.

Miyabi is a good knife brand. I got one in this deal. Already have a few of their black series and birch wood series, both are top of their lines.

$93.09 for a knife....even if it is Damascus steel.
Adamantium and I'd bite.

There was a deal on here awhile ago. But it was the 3.5 paring. I was trying to cut expenses at the time and I already had a good paring knife. But since then my better half was trying to pry apart some gluten-free frozen bread and broke it in half. I was horrified that she used such expensive knife to do something like that. But just played it cool and said "no big deal"

So it's a Japanese knife. Not Damascus steel. It is a lot of layers of high quality carbon steel. First, I own this knife and its amazing. The Birchwood handle is unreal in how it grips. The 100+ layers of folded steel are super sharp and very thin overall.

It's Japanese SG2. Nothing is gonna stand in front of this by much unless you want to go with stainless and live with lots of sharpening.

Got this last yr for around the same deal from Macy's. I use it almost exclusively now unless dealing with larger items. In short, this knife cuts.

It's SG2 powder metal stainless steel developed by Takefu. There are many steels better than SG2 such as ZDP-189, M390, s110v or Maxamet.

Better is a very relative term.
