Misen knives from the internet to your home. You can’t try before you buy, but you can try and return. Are they worth keeping?
Knives are essential tools for any home cook, but finding the right ones can be challenging. There are many factors to consider, such as blade material, edge angle, handle design, and price. In this review, we will look closely at the 6.5 inch chef’s knife from Misen.
Misen is a relatively new brand that launched with a successful Kickstarter campaign in 2018. It offers a range of stainless steel knives that feature a 15-degree’s edge angle, which is sharper than most Western-style knives. That sharpness can come with the tradeoff of easier to break, but they aren’t as sharp as say as Japanese knife.
Will this knife will cut through the competition? Let’s find out! 🔪
Having used this knife primarily for a few weeks, I can definitely say it cuts smoothly through your finger when cleaning it. A quick snip, very smoothly sliced.
It cuts through meat and vegetables smoothly. It takes some extra rocking and angling to control the blade edge. The shorter length makes it ideal for when you want the extra precision.
It has a less regular angle so when you sharpen it be careful with the blade, it may not come as clean as you intend, and you may lose more material than you desire.
It says it is made with Japanese 🇯🇵 steel and made in China 🇨🇳. An interesting combination to keep the prices down. Thoughts?
Compared to a thick German 🇩🇪 brand knife, it feels sleek and targeted. Compared to a folded steel 🇯🇵 Japanese knife 🔪 it feels solid and resilient.
It’s definitely a great daily driver. I’d recommend it to add to your stable, or potentially as your primary chef’s knife if you like being on the smaller precise side of average.
