Did you know that in France it's considered very bad luck to give a knife to someone? 

It is bad luck in Los Angeles too.  Someone gave someone that i know a knife one night ... didn’t gift wrap it or nothing, just stuck it right in his back.

I am technically referred to as a lifer with the company I have been employed with for the last 35 years.  So with each "milestone" year, I got to choose from the catalog and my choice was a Miyabi Kaizen 10-Piece Knife Block Set(msrp $1000.00).  Super pumped for these to arrive.  I have owned a mid level Sabatier classic forged set since 2001 and have gotten much use out of them but never was super impressed with the edge retention on these.  The Miyabi knives are said to be hand made and hand honed and razor sharp out of the box and pretty easy to keep restored to that edge but chipping can happen if not careful.

 

If any of you are familiar with these Miyabi knives and have any experience with them please share your thoughts.

They all look very nice but I still look for a full bolster on chef knives.  It's just my style I guess.

There nice took at and for home use.. Full tangs are to heavy... Out in the field..

 

But out in the field.... With heavy use

 

And large productions... It's holds the edge very well... Their light and nimble also... Great utility knives

For the money...
