After 10 years of R&D, the next generation of Misen knives is here—and they’re the best knives we’ve ever made. Our new blades are forged from AICHI ACUTO440, an innovative high-carbon stainless steel that’s also (drumroll, please) totally rust-proof. Add a redesigned pinch grip for added comfort, and the same razor-sharpness and edge retention of our bestselling original knives, and you’ve got a pro-quality knife that you can use every day.

Our 8” Chef’s Knife 2.0 is our most versatile knife, perfect for smaller kitchens (a.k.a. limited storage) or for cooks who prefer to use a single knife for everything. The long, slender blade shape features a gently curved belly, so it can rock-chop delicate herbs, deftly slice onions, and even break down a whole chicken with ease.
