The latest addition to our stock of the ever popular ZDP-189 range, the gyuto 210mm. Gyuto translates literally as 'cow sword' and is your go to chef's knife. With more of a meat bias than a santoku it has more of an elongated tip and generally a bit less height.
The handle is a walnut octagonal with a black pakka ferrule.
The knife is made from a core steel of ZDP-189, a very hard steel (66-67 HRC), which means it can achieve and hold an incredibly sharp edge and has a stunning kurouchi (or blacksmith) finish.
