The dense structure of the steel, achieved through hammering and forging, is enhanced with careful heat treatment to bring out the best properties of Blue Steel No.1. Although "Gyuto" translates to "cow sword", this versatile chef's knife is capable of cutting more than just meat. Known as a chef's knife in the West, its longer and narrower blade compared to a Santoku knife makes it ideal for cutting blocks of meat and slicing through sinew. The walnut handle, designed for comfort and grip, also complements a traditional Japanese aesthetic.Sharpness: This steel knife is coated with a rust-preventive varnish to safeguard its sharpness. Initially, the varnish may dull the cutting edge, but it will wear off over time, allowing the true sharpness to be restored through sharpening.Caution: Each knife is handmade from forging to sharpening, which may result in minor scratches and peeling of the oxidized film on the blade surface. These are not considered defects. Due to the hand-forged nature, variations in size and slight distortions or bends in the blade may occur. Not dishwasher or drying machine safe. The knife will rust if not properly cared for. Its kurouchi finish helps make rust less noticeable, but moisture should be wiped off diligently after use.
