The Hatsukokoro damascus gyuto knife is crafted by renowned blacksmith Yoshihiro Yauji in Echizen, Japan. Its core steel, Ginsan/Silver#3, is lauded as one of the finest stainless steels due to its sharpenability akin to carbon steel, delivering an enjoyable user experience. This full stainless construction makes it an easy-to-maintain option for professional and home chefs. Complemented by an octagonal monowood ebony handle, this knife exemplifies craftsmanship.
❖ Yoshihiro Yauji, an exceptional blacksmith from Takefu Knife Village, Japan, honed his skills under master blacksmith Hideo Kitaoka. Born in 1983, Yauji developed a passion for steel tools, particularly knives, viewing them as the "starting point of mankind". After a 15-year apprenticeship, Yauji-san commenced independent knife production in 2019, undertaking all forging, grinding, and sharpening processes himself.
