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 SG2, also known as R2 steel, is a high-end, powdered metallurgy stainless steel and one of the finest knife-making steels available in Japan. It is a favourite of many for its exceptional hardness and edge retention. Its fine, uniform grain structure enables razor-sharp edges, all the while holding an edge for much longer than Carbon steel knives, without needing to be concerned about rust appearing.
Care Information
This knife is made with a stainless steel and is easy going and low on maintenance. 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.

I cooked professionally for over 40 years. Now take my home cooking to the next level. Recently decided to upgrade from German knives to Japanese, I feel they generally are better and always more fun to look at. So I have been using the new knives and enjoying them. However I had not found a heavy/sturdy/full tang knife to replace my Zwilling Pro chef knife . I can rock out 10# of bolognese with my fast but not so easy rock chopping. This is the new knife for that. Doing all with a sharper edge and much more style. This knife makes the perfect gift for any cook you would like to introduce to Japanese knifes for all the reasons that I mentioned and it's relatively low maintenance. So I purchased another for my son. Chefs Edge also has great customer support and helped me with my questions as I buy Japanese knives
