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 Read

SG2 is considered by many as the best knifemaking steel in Japan. It gives all the benefits of carbon steel (very long edge retention, general ease of sharpening) without the carbon steel stresses of maintenance. It'll hold an edge for a long time, and can quickly and easily be refreshed on a whetstone or ceramic honing steel.

Care Information Read

Hand wash only, never put in a dishwasher. Dry immediately after washing. Store on a magnetic knife strip or in a saya. Sharpen on a whetstone when the blade dulls. Read our full maintenance guide for more information.

SG2R2

After sharpening many knives for some of the top Japanese Blacksmiths, Kobayashi-San decided to create his own kitchen knives. Always in high demand, and for good reason, his knives feature immaculate extra details like highly rounded and polished choils and spines. His knife ranges are now among the most popular in Japan. These are true lasers, extremely thin, light and fall effortlessly through ingredients.

Absolutely magnificent

I've been working as a chef for over 12 years now in kitchens all over Australia and I can confidently say that this is the most beautiful knife I have ever used.
Incredibly sharp and lightweight this will be my go to knife from now on.

I highly recommended this knife and the team at Chefs Edge. 11/10
