## Questions & Answers

**Q: Would this fit a miyabi fusion morimoto edition chef knife 8 in?**
A: I have the 7” premier santoku so I’m not sure if it would fit the miyabi. The packaging does say 7” and 8” knifes so give it a try, it’s a high quality knife sheath.

**Q: Does it fit the 8 inch Shun Fuji chef's knife?**
A: The 8" Shun Fuji Chef's knife is not listed on the packaging as being compatible with this saya. I would not recommend this saya for that knife.

**Q: does it fit Shun Nakiri 6.5 classic?**
A: Unfortunately,  no that Saya will not fit your product.  We currently do not offer a universal Saya that accommodates a Nakiri.

**Q: Does it fit the Shun 7 inch classic santoku?**
A: Yes, it fits my Shun 7-inch Classic Santoku with room to spare.
