That Chef is Crazy! Awesome knives, the Henckels make very good knives for everyday use.

[tsama]

Those are knives? They look more like swords. LOL

[TheBoogymannn]

can anyone tell me where to buy the knives morimoto was holding?

[capitalistsamurai]

NEVER NEVER EVER put those knives in the dishwasher!!! Hand wash only, please!!!

[xxMinseok]

Is it really that difficult to just hand-wash?! o_O

[innsanes]

Which knife is the one in his right hand? I can't find it. Very unique!

[MusicalProstitute77]

Expensive Kitchen cutlery should NEVER go in the dishwasher!! Especially riveted handled knives!!! Major NO NO!!!

[SI1V3RSt3IN]

does anyone know when the morimoto 600mc kiritsuke is coming out?

[theDAE]

I have the Henckels Miyabi MC66 knife, bought it about 6 months ago, and it sees about 5 hours of constant work daily (I'm a chef)

The Morimoto is the new type models, but their highest model Morimoto MC, only hits rockwell 63~average.

The Older Miyabi MC hits a 66~average.

So if you can, get a hold of the older Miyabi model.

There are different versions of those Miyabi knives. Those called 600S actually are dishwasher safe, the others aren't.

[equitably]

@kurakuenmike Think again.

[kittensof1984]

You should wash knives by hand, but if you actually have a way to properly stabilize the knife in a dishwasher (so it doesn't get jostled around), then there isn't really any risk.

The real issue is there almost no effort in hand-washing a knife.. so why bother with the hassle of one in a dishwasher..

[soulfly7112000]

@kittensof1984 Both heat and chemicals degrade the quality of the edge.

[baytownredsox]

i own the miyabi morimoto santoku chef knife i highly recommended it to everybody.....but yea please dont wash in dishwasher!!!!!!!!!!!!

[FlipSnipeZ]

Why would a Zwilling person tell a viewer its okay to put one of these expensive knives in the dishwasher??

[clutchcity]

Great looking knives. I would have no problems recommending these to people who want a japanese knife from a mainstream vendor
