The handles of the Miyabi Black series are made from beautiful black maple, which contrasts stunningly with the pattern on the blades..

Additional features: The blade is balanced by a substantial D-shaped handle made of stunning black ash. Effortless to hold, the classic Japanese D-shape handle offers a comfortable grip for stress-free cutting.
