Miyabi Artisan 5.25" Prep Knife

This Artisan knife is beautiful. It feels so good on my hands. The craftsmanship is absolutely outstanding. The knife arrived very sharp. The balance is just perfect. I also noticed food doesn’t stick to the knife as much. I’ll definitely add more MIYABI knifes to my kitchen. The price justifies the quality. Grazie Mille!

This blade is extremely well-crafted and exceptionally beautiful. It’s perfect for all of my home cooking needs and I look forward to using it all the time!

This knife is unsurprisingly exceptionally sharp as you would expect. The slightly hammered knife finish helps with food release which makes prep work much faster since there is almost no adhesion. The handle is beautifully crafted but also the best of the prep knives I tested in store for my hands. I have slightly larger hands, rather shorter and wide than long and slender (an XL in most gloves). The bulge in the belly and the shape of the blade give me solid grip and my knuckles just enough clearance from the cutting surface. I was initially concerned that the size of the blade wouldn’t lend itself well to more delicate prep work, but it has proven plenty precise. Lastly, for the way I chop, the blade’s contact point is perfect and where there is the least curvature so I can cleanly and swiftly severe what I’m chopping. Great knife.

This was instantly my favorite knife. So beautifully made and fits in the hand nicely. Makes cooking more fun too!

Great knife. The Miyabi Artisan 5” Prep Knife feels extremely well-balanced and comfortable in hand. The blade is very sharp right out of the box and glides through vegetables, herbs, and smaller prep tasks with ease. The handle has a nice ergonomic shape that feels secure and natural while cutting. It’s a really versatile size that works well for everyday kitchen prep. Overall, the craftsmanship and quality are exactly what you would expect from Miyabi. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a high-quality prep knife.

This knife is a handy prep tool with a razor sharp edge!

These are the greatest knives I have ever owned period. We received one like 10 years ago from some close friends as a gift and it is still our most favorite knife. So we just purchased our 2nd one, the 5-inch prep knife. Today we literally took every single other knife out of our drawer and gave them to one of our boys. We are adding a few more of these to our collection and will only use these going forward.

I love my new knife! It’s so sharp and so precise! I didn’t know what I was missing!

Beautiful knife. Wanted to buy the set, but was out of stock at the store.

I augmented my 7 knife Miyabi Artisan set with this 5.25” prep knife. I find myself reaching for this knife more and more often when, historically, I’d only grab my chef’s knife. I love these knives and glad I got this one to round out my set.
