What Makes Misen Great
Premium AUS-10 Steel
The Utility Knife is made with AICHI AUS-10 steel, which offers an even better balance between lasting sharpness and durability with 2x the carbon content of some other “premium” knives.
Unique Sloped Bolster
Our unique sloped bolster pulls double duty: the sloped shape encourages a proper “pinch grip” for comfort and control, while the bolster’s placement creates better access to the full length of the blade.
15° Blade Angles
While most Western-style knives have edge angles of 25 degrees, we use more acute 15 degree angles for a noticeably sharper cutting face.

Great Size!
This is the perfect size for an all-purpose kitchen knife. My hands are smaller than average and I love it, but my husband has larger than average hands (he’s 6’3”) and he really likes using this knife too!

Great knife
I bought this for my partner after I bought the chefs knife that was too big for her small hands. This knife works every bit as well as the chefs knife just at a smaller more manageable size for her.

Just the right size
This knife is perfect for slicing a few peppers, mincing some garlic, or trimming some steaks. Perfect size for most of my needs.
