An In depth look

Blade Type

The Gyuto is the do-it-all, general purpose chef's knife. If you are looking for an all-rounder that can handle daily veg and protein prep and portioning, this is the one! A 210mm edge length is the most common, but try a 240mm if you prefer larger knives.

Steel Type

Cobalt special steel, a high-end Japanese stainless steel, is renowned for its superior edge retention and sharpness. Enriched with carbon and chromium, it offers excellent corrosion resistance. The addition of cobalt, molybdenum, and vanadium enhances its hardness and durability, making Cobalt special steel ideal for a great everyday workhorse knife steel.

Care Information

This knife is made from a high-carbon, semi-stainless steel and will be robust and resistant to rust. While it will not rust quickly like pure carbon, it is still best practice to not leave this knife wet for extended periods as it's stain-less, not stain-none! A light patina (colouration and seasoning of the steel) will still form over time.
