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 Western-style (yo) handle, the kind most cooks outside Japan are used to.
- VG-10 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
- Like any hard Japanese blade, keep it off bones, frozen food and glass or stone boards.
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. VG-10 is stainless: it won't rust in normal use, so it is the easy choice for everyday cooking. The Western handle has the familiar heft and grip of a European chef's knife.
