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 Steel #2, or "Aogami" #2, is a revered high-carbon steel alloyed with low amounts of chromium and tungsten. It strikes an excellent balance between durability, edge retention, and ease of sharpening. Slightly more ductile than Blue #1, it's widely used in crafting traditional Japanese knives, beloved by chefs for its resilience and sharpness, albeit is slightly softer than Blue 1.

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.

Muneishi Blue 2 Gyuto 210

I’m very impressed with the performance of this knife, particularly for the money.

The blade profile has a good balance of belly and flat section along the blade edge. The tip is very sharp but not too thin. More expensive knives may have better fit and finish but the ergonomics of this are perfectly functional. The grind is slightly convex and symmetrical. It seems to hold an edge a good while.

There’s really nothing to complain about at this price point, very good value all round. Get one before they’re gone.
