Japanese SHOTOH knife Miyabi 5000MCD

The SHOTOH from Miyabi 5000MCD is a small, yet fine, unique cutting utensil. This extra thin and sturdy blade is ideal when you need to cut, peel or clean fruit or vegetables. Aesthetics have played a key role in Japanese cuisine since time immemorial. The look of a dish and the way it is presented on the plate are just as much a part of the pleasure as its taste and aroma. In the kitchen, Japanese chefs are just as demanding where aesthetics are concerned as they are with functionality. The MIYABI 5000MCD series of knives provides professionals and ambitious amateur chefs with a set of precision knives that combine perfect functionality and ergonomics with unique design.
