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.
- SPG STRIX is a stainless steel, which resists rust better than carbon steel.
- It is double-bevel (sharpened on both sides), so it works for left- and right-handed cooks.
Limits to know
- A thin grind cuts easily but is not made for hard or frozen food, bones or twisting in the cut.
Written from this knife's catalog record (steel, handle, length, grind). Knife Fit has not tested it; see how we work.
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. SPG STRIX is stainless, so it shrugs off a wet board. The Japanese wa handle is light and puts the balance toward the blade.
