Specifications

Hand-forged in Sakai, Japan by Satoshi Nakagawa for the Hatsukokoro brand, this 210mm kiritsuke gyuto has a Ginsan core. Its angled tip is useful for fine tip work. Ginsan holds an edge well and sharpens more easily than most stainless steels, behaving closer to carbon steel on the stone. The knife feels light in the hand for its size. This is a Japanese chef's knife suited to cooks who want the low maintenance of stainless with a steel that still sharpens like carbon.

  • Hand-forged in Sakai, Japan by Satoshi Nakagawa
  • Sharpened and finished by Morihiro Hamono
  • 198mm (7.8") cutting edge, 44.2mm heel height
  • Ginsan stainless steel (~62 HRC) with stainless cladding
  • Octagonal mono ebony handle
  • For left- and right-handed users
