As each knife is individually hand-forged, there may be slight variations in size and weight from one knife to another.
These variations do not affect the sharpness or performance of the knife.
This Japanese Gyuto features Aogami #2 as its core steel, clad on both sides with stainless steel. It combines the excellent sharpness and edge retention characteristic of Aogami #2 with the ease of maintenance provided by stainless steel, making it a knife that offers both outstanding cutting performance and everyday practicality.
