What is .925 Sterling Silver?
The Short Answer:
Sterling silver consists of at least 92.5 percent silver and 7.5% percent of other metals like copper, nickel, or both. The reason for this is Pure Silver or Fine Silver, is very soft and very malleable making it easy to damage or bend. Other metal alloys like copper or nickel are added to the silver to make a more durable piece.
All items sold by Silver Superstore as “Sterling Silver” contain at least 92.5% percent Silver and are stamped with either “.925”, “Sterling Silver”, or both.

What does " w/stamp " mean?
As of April 2022, Fortessa is no longer stamping their logo in their flatware pieces. We do have some stock left of the stamped versions. If you are looking to match your older, stamped, pieces you will want to select the pieces denoted with “w/stamp”.

I did a switch from Shun this year and what a difference so far. Its so light Im scared to hurt this blade. Truely a sturdy piece of work thought and very beautiful. Grazie mille for such great craftsmanship.
I am no chef but I cook on a daily basis. The Miyabi knife makes cooking a breeze. Using a professional knife makes all the difference in the world. A vast difference from all my old knives. I did extensive research on different knife brands and this one checked all the boxes. The only factor that you have to consider is that Japanese steel is thinner (for sharpness) so you must handle with care. These knives will potentially get chips if you use it to cut bone or tougher fruits like butternut squash. That being said, it glides through foods effortlessly. The handle feels great to hold for all cutting positions and looks beautiful. The craftmanship on my Miyabi knife is amazing and the attention to detail second to none.
This is a beautiful knife with a wicked sharp edge. I love how balanced it is, and the extended bolster is perfect for doing detail work.
Fell in love with the knife when I first laid eyes on it. My wife got one for my father-in-law who loves cooking as a birthday present. I guess she noticed my not-so-secret admiration that she surprised me with my very own chef knife too. I will treasure it daily.
this chef knife with a sharp Japanese style Honbasuke, and a design and utility of the best.
Wow.. I'm so happy I splurged on this knife! I was hesitant to spend over $200, but it does make a difference. For reference, I had another Zwilling knife that was ~$100. The knife is very sharp and looks/feels great in my hands. I can make more precision cuts and very fluid cuts. Well worth the purchase and highly recommend.
