About this item
- HIGH CARBON VERSATILITY: Pro-grade high carbon stainless steel stays sharper longer than most knives thanks to the strenght of carbon. Versatile for everyday tasks like easily slicing vegetables and meats or even harder tasks like filleting fish and slicing soft breads.
- EXCEPTIONAL JAPANESE CRAFTMANSHIP: Made with the premium AICHI AUS-10 steel, this chef knife boasts 2x the carbon content compared to other "premium" knives. Experience superior balance between enduring sharpness and unmatched durability.
- RAZOR SHARP 15 DEGREE BLADE ANGLE: Unlike other premium knives that are set their edge to 20-degrees, Misen has a more acute edge that helps the knife glide effortless through even stubborn foods like squash and onions.
- ERGONOMIC BRILLIANCE: Our uniquely sloped bolster not only fosters the ideal "pinch grip" for enhanced comfort and control but also keeps your hand safe from typical knife accidents. The ergonomic shape is comfortable hold for all-day cooking and the POM handle is heat and slip resistent.
- INCOMPARABLE VALUE & QUALITY: Misen's commitment is unwavering. While we prioritize using the finest materials reminiscent of professional chef knives, we believe in offering direct, fair, and honest pricing, ensuring premium quality doesn't come with a premium price tag.

One of my passions is cooking, I have owned and managed several restaurants over the last 20 years never did I think I could or would use a knife in this price range. With that being said one of my employees mentioned they used Misen knives at home and was surprised by the quality. I went to their website and scoured the web for real reviews (if I could find a knife at this price point that actually was as good as the reviews I was willing to put in the time to research). I ultimately ended up buying the entire set on Amazon due to the easy return policy and of course the 2% back). Here's my impressions from day one to almost 7 months.
Day 1 arrival and unboxing - All the knives arrived in premium packaging. I washed and sanitized them all preparing to use them for dinner. The knives themselves wereuch lighter than I expected and felt perfect in the hand. The material the handles are made of felt perfect . I would compare it to a ceramic with a matte textured finish. Blades were shard as they should be and ready to quarter some Cornish hens. All of the blades cut just as well as my much more expensive set. Vegetables diced perfectly. One of my favorite features about these knives it the angle at which the blades are forged. For instance the chef knife angle is different than the paring knife angle allowing each knife to perform individually perfect at the task it's supposed to do.
One month in and all the blades are still Sharp. Edges are clean and no honing or sharpening needed. Although I don't use every knife every day I do use at least one or two of the set daily.
3 months in and knives are still holding an edge and I decided not to sharpen them to see exactly how long I could go before needing to sharpen them. This gives me a good idea of the quality of the steel used to make these knives
6 months in and all of the knives still have an edge but starting to dull. I sharpened the entire set and they were like new. I specifically used an inexpensive wet Stone to sharpen these knives instead of a honing tool so that way I could see if the average user would be able to sharpen easily.
7 months since I first received this set and I'm happy to say it is now on my countertop for use as my daily knife. Since then I have ordered several different Misen products and hope they all are as good as this knife set. I'll continue to update this review .
Bottom line is the quality versus value of this set is unbeatable. I purchased two more sets as gifts. You can't go wrong

The hybrid blade geometry is nice to work with but it could take some getting used to if you’ve been using another brand for the past few years or decades. The steel used (AUS-10) carries a Rockwell hardness rating of 58/60 HRC. Certainly not diamond-hard, but definitely hard enough to hold a nice edge when sharpened properly.
In principle, a knife is simple – a blade with a handle. I know that far pricier options exist but I’m not in the mood to dump hundreds of dollars into a knife when this option will perform comparably well for a fraction of the price. I don’t need to have the top-end name in my knife block since I’m not trying to impress with the label on my cutlery. For a home chef like me, this tool does the job and I expect many years of good service out of it in the future.
An economy car can get you from A to B just the same as a luxury car can. If you just have to have that luxury name in your kitchen, keep looking. This knife is the Honda Civic – simple, unassuming, reliable, and well-made. It won’t get you noticed by any label snobs though.
Bottom line – I like this knife and I would definitely recommend it at this price point. You get your money’s worth.
I chose this one because, well, it's beautiful. I figured something midrange would be a good knife to start with, instead of something cheap or really expensive. I'm uncomfortable using an 8" knife because I'm petite and have small hands. It just feels like too much for me. The size of this knife is absolutely perfect. I'm usually just cutting fruits, veggies, or chicken, so I don't need something big for heavy-duty tasks. Like I mentioned before, I've never really used a "nice" knife, so I can't really judge its merits versus others, but it feels very sturdy, balanced, and well-made. And of course, like you'd expect from a brand-new knife, it's sharp as hell!
Best of all -- I cut sweet potatoes today with it, easily. It went through them like they were apples. Sweet potatoes are my favorite food, so I'm excited that I don't always have to bake them whole now! If you're looking for a beautiful, affordable all-rounder knife for smaller hands, this is a great choice.
