  • Our take on the Gyuto Knife

    The Gyuto is an all-purpose Japanese chef's knife for slicing meat, mincing herbs and dicing onions. Its AUS-10 steel core, clad in two layers of stainless steel and hardened to HRC 58-60, holds an edge for months, and the long curved edge suits rocking cuts while the pointed tip handles precision work. The hand-forged Kurouchi finish helps food release and resists rust, and the ebony and rosewood Wa handle keeps it light and balanced. It sits above soft German-style chef's knives on edge retention and sharpness, but the hard, thin blade asks for more careful handling and hand washing. Owners rate it highly, 5 out of 5 from 38 ratings.

    About the Gyuto Knife

    The Gyuto is an all-purpose chef's knife for slicing meat, mincing herbs and dicing onions. It has a sharp pointed tip for precision work and a long curved edge for rocking cuts.

    The blade has a Japanese AUS-10 steel core with two layers of protective stainless steel, a San-Mai construction. It is rated HRC 58-60 and stays sharp for months. The blade is hand-forged with a Kurouchi blacksmith's finish. Food releases instead of sticking, and the dark forged texture protects against rust.

    The Wa handle is made of ebony and rosewood. It is light, well balanced and comfortable to hold.

    Questions and answers

    Is this a good first Japanese knife?
    Yes, if you are willing to hand wash and dry it and keep it off hard boards. The all-purpose Gyuto shape covers most kitchen tasks, and the stainless cladding makes it more forgiving than a full carbon blade.
    How does it compare with a German chef's knife?
    It is harder (HRC 58-60) and thinner, so it takes a keener edge and holds it longer, but it is less tolerant of twisting and rough chopping. German knives are softer and tougher but dull faster.
    Does the Kurouchi finish wear off?
    The dark forged finish can fade slightly with scrubbing and long use. Wash gently and dry it promptly to keep the texture and rust protection intact.
    How should I sharpen it?
    Use water stones or a fine ceramic rod at a shallow angle, around 15 degrees per side. Avoid pull-through sharpeners, which can chip the hard edge.
    What is the blade made of?
    An AUS-10 stainless steel core clad in two layers of protective stainless steel in San-Mai construction, hardened to HRC 58-60.
    Is the handle comfortable for large hands?
    The ebony and rosewood Wa handle is light and balanced. Its octagonal-style shape suits most grips, though cooks used to a full Western bolster may want to try it first.
    Where is the Gyuto Knife cheapest?
    At Yuzu Knives, for $139.00, as of our latest check.
    What do buyers say about the Gyuto Knife?
    Rated 5 out of 5 from 38 ratings.
