Enjoy professional-grade performance with this Gyuto Blue steel #2 Kurouchi Buffalo Ebony Handle 210mm. Featuring a Blue #2 Kurouchi blade crafted with superior hardness and durability, this knife guarantees lasting performance even with frequent use. The Buffalo Ebony handle provides a comfortable grip for precision control.

The Gyuto is an all-purpose knife with a pointed tip and a slender blade. The pointed tip enables an easy targeted cut and helps slice meat and fish. It used to be a knife for professional chefs but nowadays is also used by households. Its curved blade helps you apply force to cut food without effort.

Aogami No.2 (Hitachi Metals Ltd.) is made by adding Chromium and Tungsten / Wolfram to Shirogami No.2. This results in increased toughness and the production of hard carbide molecules which improve edge retention. Many knife users have noted that while Aogami No.2 is very similar to Shirogami No.2 in terms of edge sharpness, it has slightly superior edge retention.

Kurouchi Finish, the unprocessed (black) part on the top side of the blade has already developed a dark patina, which protects the blade and gives it a traditional Japanese look.

Gyuto Blue steel #2

Beautiful blade, razor sharp! I recommend this knife for home use. I work in a fast passed kitchen and unfortunately I've chipped it twice so far.

Love this knife, not a pro but they get used daily and I enjoy them every time. Feel great in my hands and make quick work of pretty much everything I do... quick honing keeps the edge razor sharp.

Product Features

Handmade Forging

With the traditional forging process, the molecules of the iron material are finely tuned, leading to the completion of a "living kitchen knife" that breathes.

Durability

The process of heating and forging each material for mold making is repeated three or four times to quickly shape the blade and create durability before the carbon is released from the steel causing it to lose its original strength.

Sharpness

The blade is the most important factor in achieving the best possible sharpness. It is polished in our own blade factory to produce uncompromising sharpness.

Handle

The highest priority is placed on sturdiness, a sense of luxury, and a shape that is easy to grip and does not cause fatigue even after long hours of use.
