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

Japanese AU8 steel is a high-quality stainless steel renowned for its balance of toughness and durability while still holding a good edge. It is on the softer side of most Japanese Stainless Steels, slightly softer than VG10 or Ginsan. Enriched with vanadium, it achieves a superior durability, making it ideal for crafting durable, sharp knives that withstand rigorous use.

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.
