Miyabi Kaizen II Bread Knife
Designed to exacting standards and only available at Sur La Table, Kaizen II improves upon Miyabi's popular Kaizen collection with the addition of FC61 super steel, redesigned pakkawood handles and a host of new, chef-friendly features. Literally "change for the better" in Japanese, kaizen isn't just a word but a way of life-one our completely reinvented collection celebrates by combining the latest technology with sleek, modern lines and centuries of knife-making artistry. Forged from a core of FC61 steel surrounded by 48 layers of stainless steel Damascus, Miyabi Kaizen II knives perform as good as they look. Sharpened using the traditional four-step Honbazuke technique, each knife is a hand-sharpened work of art.

Madeira Paddle Board
This beautiful board is one of our favorite new additions to our collection. Madeira's paddle board is constructed of one of the most popular woods in the world because of its versatility, function and beauty-plantation teak. Commonly used in outdoor furniture, yachts and spa equipment, weather-resistant teak is also perfect for use in the kitchen. Teak's tight grains and natural coloration make it a highly attractive cutting board material, both for aesthetic and durability purposes. The natural oils in this tropical hardwood allow it to repel moisture, warping, and microbes. This cutting board originates from one of the largest teak plantations in the world, located in South America. The name "plantation teak" refers to the sustainability of this raw material, as it is farmed using responsible forestry practices. Not only is the wood sustainable, but Madeira has crafted this cutting board by utilizing the remnants from other teak products that are typically discarded in the manufacturing process. Thus, Madeira is almost completely eliminating any potential waste of this precious material. The beautiful, edge-grain teak board is perfect for entertaining, cheese platters, serving or chopping fruits and vegetables. Durable enough for everyday use, teak is also gentle on your knives.
