The Gyuto is a versatile kitchen knife with a slim blade and a pointed tip. The tip makes it easy to cut precisely and is great for slicing meat and fish. The slight curve of the blade lets you cut smoothly with less effort.

Aogami No.1 is a high-carbon steel made by adding more carbon and tungsten to Aogami No.2. This results in a steel that can take an even sharper edge and hold it longer. It’s highly regarded for its cutting performance and is often chosen by professional chefs who prioritize edge retention. Like other carbon steels, it’s reactive and requires care to prevent rust, but many say the performance is well worth it. Knives made with Aogami No.1 often feature a Kurouchi or satin finish to help protect the blade and give it a traditional Japanese character.
Avoid using a twisting motion when cutting, as this can damage the blade.
Always choose the appropriate knife for the task, cutting bones, frozen foods, or other hard items requires a suitable blade. Images shown are for reference only.
Since each knife is handcrafted, variations in color, weight, pattern, and size are natural.
Use a soft plastic or wooden cutting board to help maintain the sharpness of your knife’s edge.
Avoid exposing the knife to sudden temperature changes, as it can alter the steel’s structure.
