The Miyabi Birchwood SG2 is a 9.5-inch Japanese chef's knife forged from a hard SG2 micro-carbide powder steel core clad in 100 layers of steel, giving it a 101-layer flower Damascus pattern and a Rockwell hardness of 63. The blade takes a thin, acute katana-style edge that slices cleanly and holds it well, while the D-shaped Karelian birch handle is shaped for a comfortable pinch grip. It sits above mainstream German-pattern chef's knives in hardness and edge geometry, but that hardness makes it less forgiving of bones, frozen food and the dishwasher. It suits cooks who want a sharp, light Japanese blade and will care for it by hand.

Owners rate it very highly, praising its sharpness out of the box, edge retention and the look of the Damascus blade and birch handle. The main complaints are about care: the thin hard edge chips if mistreated, and the wooden handle needs hand washing.
