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
Japanese White Steel #2, a traditional high-carbon steel, is cherished for its purity and fine grain structure, enabling razor-sharp edges, at the cost of being reactive. It is one of the easiest steels to sharpen, but cannot be left wet for even short periods otherwise rust spots can occur. If you’re fastidious in your knife maintenance, this knife steel can be extremely rewarding to use.
Care Information
This knife is made from a high-carbon steel and as such, will require a little more care than a regular off-the-shelf knife. It must be dried shortly after use, as prolonged exposure to moisture can cause rust spots to appear. A very light coat of oil during storage also helps to prevent rust spots. A patina (colouration and seasoning of the steel) will occur with use.
Introducing
Satoshi Nakagawa
Having trained for nearly 16 years under the legendary blacksmith Kenichi Shiraki, Satoshi Nakagawa has quickly emerged as one of Sakai’s most respected and talented artisans. Nakagawa-san is highly regarded for his exceptional craftsmanship, versatility, and meticulous precision when working with a diverse range of knife steels.
In an exclusive collaboration between Chef’s Edge and Sakai Kikumori, Nakagawa-san crafted a unique series of knives featuring taller blade profiles, specially designed to deliver outstanding handling, comfort, and cutting performance. Each blade embodies Nakagawa’s deep commitment to excellence and showcases why he is becoming one of Japan’s most celebrated knife-makers.
