An In depth look

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

Spicy White is a High-Carbon Steel, hardened to 64HRC by Leszek. It has great edge retention and toughness, and has been etched for corrosion resistance.

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

Craftsmanship Without Borders

At Chef’s Edge, we believe that world-class craftsmanship knows no borders. While Japan remains the heart of our collection, we also work directly with some of the most respected blacksmiths from across the globe — including makers in Poland, England, the United States, Australia, and beyond.

Each knife we select is made by hand, forged with purpose, and built to perform — whether it comes from a traditional Japanese forge or a small, modern workshop on the other side of the world.

We’re proud to showcase a global community of artisans who share a singular dedication to quality, precision, and the art of the blade.
