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 Read

Japanese White Steel #2, a traditional high-carbon steel, is cherished for its purity and fine grain structure, enabling razor-sharp edges, at the cost of being reactive. It is one of the easiest steels to sharpen, but cannot be left wet for even short periods otherwise rust spots can occur. If you’re fastidious in your knife maintenance, this knife steel can be extremely rewarding to use.

Care Information Read

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.

Shiro Kamo Gyuto

Superb knife cuts obscenely sharply out of the box and is really well balanced. I wanted a special knife for my first carbon steel purchase and this was perfect. It looks beautiful with the walnut handle and it's going to be a dream to sharpen in due course. It's well worth the additional maintenance that white paper steel requires.

Shiro Kamo white 2 210 mm gyuto

Very tall and thin as advertised. Excellent performance in a professional kitchen. Damascus pattern is cool. Cutting freshly cooked steaks gave this guy a gorgeous blue patina. Very satisfied with this one for the price

Iit was a gift

I am sure my son loved it.
Only thing l would like to say is the delivery was made to a company address unsure why they would delivery it at 8.30pm. Or do the check that it would be open

Pretty good

Knife stays very sharp and is really good to use but the blade is very thin so have to be careful when using as to not bend it
