Shun vs Miyabi Knives | The Most In-Depth Comparison EVER (16 Series Compared)

This isn’t just another Shun vs. Miyabi video—it’s a deep dive into 16 different knife series from both brands—from entry-level to premium—to help you determine which blade best fits your needs. We break down each knife by steel, Rockwell hardness, blade finish, and handle material and then by retail price (as of April 2025), ranging from $130 to $430. Along the way, you’ll see side-by-side comparisons of similar series and learn why specs matter more than brand loyalty. To wrap it up, we show all the blades on a cutting board so you can see how each one makes contact — and how that affects tap, push, rock, and cross-chopping. Whether you’re a first-time buyer or deep into collecting, this guide is designed to help you make smarter decisions based on how you prep food — not just what’s trending. 👀 Chapters and product links below. 🛒 Shop Shun Knives Collection: https://cutleryandmore.com/pages/shun 🛒 Shop Miyabi Knives Collection: https://cutleryandmore.com/pages/miyabi Shop all Japanese Knives: https://cutleryandmore.com/collection...
