An In Depth Look

Blade Type
Blade Type

The Gyuto is the do-it-all, general purpose chef's knife. If you are looking for an all-rounder that can handle daily veg and protein prep and portioning, this is the one! A 210mm edge length is the most common, but try a 240mm if you prefer larger knives.

Steel Type
Steel Type Read

Japanese Blue Steel #1, known as "Aogami" #1, is a premium high-carbon steel enriched with tungsten and chromium. It has seen a recent surge in popularity and is now used by many top-tier knife makers for its superior edge retention and durability. It also offers a unique balance of toughness and sharpness. This steel is highly valued in crafting traditional Japanese knives, especially for professional use.

HADO Sakai are, in our opinion, among Japan's premier knife makers. Everything about their ranges is exquisite. They source the forged blanks from Yoshikazu Tanaka, Satoshi Nakagawa among others, then grind, sharpen, and finish their knives in-house. We've had the pleasure of visiting them multiple times and are such a vibrant, young, and committed team. Their packaging has been custom designed in collaboration with French artist Phillipe Weisbecker, of which this packaging houses one of the finest blades we have ever seen.

Favorite knife

Of all the japanese knives I own, this tops them all. There is not a single complaint or flaw in this knife imo. At this point, it is difficult to buy any more knives cuz i fear they wont even come close to comparing. I find myself always going back to using this Hado in the kitchen and look forward to cooking again just for the reason of using it.
If there is one knife to own, this would be it for me.
