The Miyabi Artisan 34080-000 is a four-knife set built around SG-2 powder steel hardened to 63 HRC, clad in three layers and finished with a brown wood handle. It bundles a chef's knife, santoku, utility knife and paring knife with scissors, a sharpener and a knife block, so it covers most kitchen prep out of the box. The hard SG-2 core holds a keen edge longer than the softer German steel in most mainstream sets, but it is brittle and demands careful handling. It suits cooks who want Japanese-style sharpness and a matched block, and who accept hand washing and a learning curve. Against rival Japanese sets it stands out on steel and edge retention; against German sets it trades toughness and forgiveness for cutting performance.

Owners of Miyabi Artisan knives praise the sharpness out of the box and how long the edge lasts, and describe the wood handles as comfortable and well balanced. Critics warn the hard SG-2 edge can chip with rough use and that the knives need hand washing and careful storage.
