What to know before you buy

About this knife

  • Gyuto knives of this 210mm length are the usual size for a main kitchen knife.
  • It has a Japanese-style (wa) handle: a handle without a metal bolster, set into the blade with a hidden tang.
  • Shirogami #2 (White #2) is a carbon steel that rusts and stains if it is left wet, so it is wiped dry after every use.

Limits to know

  • It is single-bevel: sharpened on one side only, made for one hand, and harder to sharpen well than a double-bevel knife.
  • Carbon steel develops a patina and can rust; it is not for a knife that sits wet in the sink.

Good to know for beginners

A gyuto is the Japanese chef's knife: one blade for nearly every job, with a gentle curve for rocking and a fine tip for detail work. Shirogami #2 (White #2) is carbon steel: very sharp and easy to sharpen, but wipe it dry while you cook or it will rust. The Japanese wa handle is light and puts the balance toward the blade.
