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
Steel Type Read

Japanese Blue Super Steel, an elite variant of the "Aogami" series, is a high-carbon steel alloyed with chromium, tungsten, and added vanadium. This composition enhances its wear resistance, edge retention, and overall toughness. It will still rust if left wet for too long, but not as quickly as any of the other carbon steels. Favored in fine knife crafting, Blue Super Steel is renowned for producing exceptionally sharp and durable Japanese knives.

Katsushige Anryu is a fourth-generation blacksmith from Echizen, Japan, continuing a family legacy that began in 1873 with his great-grandfather, Hansaburo Anryu. Joining the family forge straight out of high school in 1959, Anryu-san went on to master traditional knife forging under the guidance of his father, Katsutoshi Anryu, and was later certified as a Traditional Craftsman of Japan.

Highly respected for both his craft and character, Anryu-san has served as the Chairman of the Takefu Knife Village Cooperative, a collective of Echizen’s most esteemed makers. In 2015, he was awarded a Medal of Honour for Traditional Crafts, recognising his lifelong dedication to preserving and advancing the art of Japanese bladesmithing.
