Gyuto
The Gyuto is the general purpose chef knife to suit many tasks, including cutting larger meats and vegetables. It is the most commonly found knife type in many professional kitchens around the world. If you're unsure what length to go for, the 210mm is the staple of many, and if you like your knives a little longer opt for a 240mm. A small Gyuto of 180mm length is perfect for the smaller jobs, or people with smaller hands.

Knife Information
A relatively young but masterful blacksmith, Shigeki Tanaka crafts his knives in a workshop in Miki City, Japan. Known for being skilful and creative, he works with almost all knifemaking steels, from high carbon like Aogami, to powder stainless steel.
The first thing we noted was the impeccable presentation. A Palownia wooden box houses all his ZDP189 knives and is lined with red velvet. The Damascus is subtle, and the performance is legendary, with extreme edge retention and effortless cuts.
Best paired with a 27cm felt lined blade guard and a 1000/6000 whetstone

Knife Information
Tadafusa manufacture their knives in the city of Sanjo, well known across Japan as the ‘town of blacksmiths’. The likes of Yoshikane, Hinoura, and Kawamura all hail from the same city. Tadafusa was founded in 1948 by Sone Torasaburo, who began making sickles, knives, and other bladed tools using traditional forging methods, but then began to specialise in kitchen knives, which has culminated in the immaculate pieces you see here.
Best paired with a camellia oil, wooden saya and a 1000/6000 whetstone
This knife is great for:
✅ Those wanting a fairly easy knife to maintain, but don't mind carbon steel maintenance
✅ Those who like slightly thicker and heavier knives with comfy western style handles
✅ Pinch grip cutters
✅ Larger cutting (larger meats etc)
