Crafted in Seki, Japan - a city known for its legendary bladesmithing, the 24cm Gyutoh Chef's Knife by Miyabi is perfect for cutting or slicing through meat or fish. Its slim yet stable blade delivers a perfectly controlled and clean cut. It has an authentic Japanese profile with an extremely sharp Honbazuke honing and is symmetrically polished at an angle of 19 degrees. The blade is first sharpened twice on rotating stones and is then polished on a leather wheel.

Ease of handling is guaranteed by the handle, made of beautiful Masur birch, creating a thing of beauty with its light and dark lines. The interplay of colours within the graining represents an attractive addition to the floral Damask pattern on the blade, making each knife a unique work of art. The D-shaped handle also offers perfect balance, guaranteeing optimum control and fatigue-free cutting.
A core of MicroCarbide MC63 powder steel is used to produce the blade, embedded in 100 layers of two different types of steel, both with different degrees of hardness. The CRYUDOR® blade is also ice-hardened in a specially developed process at -196 degrees Celsius to give it a final hardness of around 63 Rockwell.
