An In Depth Look

Blade Type
Blade Type

The Gyuto knife, a cornerstone of Japanese culinary tradition, is a versatile, all-purpose chef's knife. Its name, translating to "beef sword," reflects its proficiency in slicing meat and in more modern times vegetables. However, its slightly curved blade excels in chopping, dicing, and mincing, making it indispensable in any kitchen.

Steel Type
Steel Type Read

SGSTRIX is a high-carbon, high stainless powder steel designed to perform better than SG2, whilst being even easier to sharpen. It has finer carbibe sizes similar to Blue or White Steel, with high corrosion resistance.

Care Information
