I.O.Shen Miho Slicer 36cm

Miho Slicer

Another 360mm knife, the Miho ('Miho' is a girl's name in Japan that means 'beauty') was also designed in collaboration with Marcus Bawdon and DrSweetSmoke. It is again multi-purpose and is suitable, for example, for slicing meat and raw fish. The flat edge is ideal for cutting even slices of large pieces of food with minimal flexing in the blade. At the barbeque the Miho is a great choice for slicing through big hunks of beef, especially brisket.

The IO Shen design team, who are based in the UK, go to great lengths to make sure that their new models are designed with professional chefs in mind. That way, even if you're 'only' an enthusiastic home chef, you know that the IO Shen range will do what they need to do, and just keep going, plus are designed in a way that they are comfortable to use, even when a huge amount of chopping and cutting is required.
A focus for some of these knives is for use at the barbeque, something that is gaining in popularity in the UK, and of course here in Australia is pretty much a part of our national identity. So these barbeque knives should feel right at home here.
