Blade Type

The Gyuto knife, a cornerstone of Japanese culinary tradition, is a versatile, all-purpose chef's knife. Its name, translating to "beef sword," reflects its proficiency in slicing meat and in more modern times vegetables. However, its slightly curved blade excels in chopping, dicing, and mincing, making it indispensable in any kitchen

Steel Type

Japanese AUS-10 steel is a high-quality stainless steel renowned for its balance of toughness and durability while still holding a good edge. It is on the softer side of most Japanese Stainless Steels, slightly softer than VG10 or Ginsan. Enriched with vanadium, it achieves a superior durability, making it ideal for crafting durable, sharp knives that withstand rigorous use.

It has high chromium content, meaning it is generally considered safe to leave wet on the board for short periods of time. is still best practice to not leave this knife to air dry as it's stain-less not stain-none! Wipe down after washing the knife and store away from any sources of moisture.
