The specific shape of this knife makes it maximally functional in every kitchen!

Gyuto translates to "cow sword" and in Japanese kitchens it has the same role as our Chef knife. The tip of the Gyuta allows the user to more easily perform specific tasks such as slicing, while the flat part of the blade is used for longer cuts and chopping. Gyuto is one of the most popular Japanese knife shapes because you can use it to cut, chop and slice vegetables, meat and fish.

The blade is made of VG10 steel that is coated with multiple layers of Damascus. Kunio has a special steel hardening technique that results in an incredible sharpness that is long-lasting and easy to resharpen. A hazy "kasumi" finish has been applied to the blade.

The handle of the knife is made in European style from pakka wood, firmly fixed with two rivets and is shaped to perfectly adapt to the user's hand.

How to choose the first knife?

If you are buying your first Japanese knife, the advice is to choose a multifunctional blade shape that will cover the widest range of your needs in the kitchen. This includes Gyuto, Santoku and Bunka. The rule is that bigger people need bigger knives and vice versa.

Japanese knife as a gift

Although in the culture of the Far East it is not recommended to give a blade as a gift because of the connection with cutting off good relations, they also could not resist the perfection of such a gift, so they devised a "trick" that allows them to gift knives without problems. Just ask for one coin from the person receiving the gift and in the eyes of strict superstition spirits it will be a fair exchange. Now no joke, a knife is a gift that unlike other transient things will be remembered forever because it will serve forever.
