The Gyuto is the Japanese version of the classic western-style chef’s knife. Similar to the western chef’s knife, the Gyuto is a versatile, multi-purpose knife that is suitable for cutting the vast majority of meats, fishes, vegetables, fruits and herbs.

Gyutos are long knives that are commonly tall at the heel with a slight curve from the midsection to the pointed tip of the blade. The relatively flat heel of the blade makes it well-suited for a variety of chopping styles including tap-chopping, push-cutting and pull-cutting, while the slight belly towards the tip of the blade allows for easy rock-cutting. The pointed tip of the blade can also be used for precision cuts.

The Gyuto knife’s double bevel blade is typically thinner, lighter and holds a sharper edge than a Western chef’s knife. For most users, the Gyuto is the best all-purpose knife and the most versatile and useful Japanese knife in the kitchen.

The handles are made out of a honeycomb and resin material. The red stripe brings the eye directly to the handle and divides the honeycomb and the black and white tempest swirl of the resin at the bottom of the handle. You will also notice a geometric mosaic pin in the handle and this features just tops off one of my favorite scale sets used on our knives.  These handles are extremely stable. They are attached with 2 standard pins and one intricate mosaic pin. These Highly polished knives will look great in your kitchen.
