Specifications

Hand-forged in Ibaraki, Japan by Yuki Abe, this gyuto has a Shirogami #1 core with stainless steel cladding and a kurouchi finish. This Japanese chef's knife is built for those who prefer a robust blade over a thin, delicate one. It handles daily prep without babying the edge. The 56mm blade height gives extra knuckle clearance for tall-gyuto fans. Shirogami #1 takes a keen edge and sharpens easily on stones. Stainless cladding limits patina and reactivity to the exposed core steel, making maintenance easier.

  • Hand-forged in Ibaraki, Japan by Yuki Abe

  • Shirogami #1 carbon steel core with stainless steel cladding

Notes:
  • The photo shows one of the knives from our current stock, so it may not be the exact one you'll receive. Each knife is handmade, so no two are exactly alike. If you'd like to see the actual knife, email us at info@zahocho.com.
  • Kurouchi finish varies from knife to knife. Fading, patchy spots, and light scratching are normal characteristics, not defects. If you prefer a clean & uniform finish, other finish types may suit you better.
  • Handle is fitted by the maker and shipped as-is. We don't offer handle swaps.
