A handcrafted gyuto knife made for lasting performance. While many Japanese knives today are mass-produced, this gyuto is carefully handmade by a small team of skilled craftsmen. Designed with ease of use and longevity in mind, it offers not only excellent sharpness but also effortless maintenance—making it a stress-free, reliable tool that can be used for years to come.
MATERIAL
White Steel #2
The purest type of carbon steel used in knives, offering exceptional ease of sharpening and polishing.
HANDLE TYPE
Japanese
The lightweight structure and center of gravity positioned close to the blade make it ideal for delicate operations and quick reversals. Wood-based designs that fit comfortably in the hand are mainstream.
HANDLE MATERIAL
Ebony
Ebony is one of the most durable and highest-grade materials used in knife-making. It resists damage, absorbs minimal odor, and adds an elegant, enduring finish to the knife.
BLADE TYPE
Gyuto
Gyuto is the Japanese equivalent of a Western chef’s knife, featuring a longer, slightly curved blade that excels at rocking, slicing, and versatile cutting of meat, fish, and vegetables.
FINISH
Migaki
Migaki (polished) knives are finished with a higher grit, creating a smoother surface that allows the blade to glide more easily through food.
