A knife was needed. Due to a recommendation I have some videos on you tube looked at: how to make sushi, you can see wonderful, how beautiful you can work with these diameters of Miyabi. Quality has its price, but the joy that you are experiencing thus unaffordable. I'm so careful with this knife around as if it were my eyeball;) Who likes to cook, will never regret a purchase. 1 A processing and chic design speak for themselves. I highly recommend this knife really cooking with a clear conscience to each of the loves warmly recommend. Have fun with this super knife.
