What are gyuto knives made from?
Gyuto knives are typically made from a wide range of high-carbon steel, stainless steel, or a combination of both (clad steel). The precise choice of steel affects the knife’s sharpness, durability, and ease of maintenance.
How do Gyuto knives differ from western style knives?
While you'll find numerous similarities between a Japanese gyuto knife and a western knife type, particularly in regards to light weight design and double bevelled edges, there are differences too.
