Specifications
The Isamitsu kurouchi shirogami#1 gyuto 210mm is a high-quality Japanese knife that showcases the exceptional craftsmanship of Yhuki Abe and Gaku Kanatsu. This dynamic duo, both originating from Teruyasu Fujiwara hamono, has combined their skills to establish Isamitsu, a relatively new company that is quickly gaining recognition for their outstanding blades.
This particular series features a thinner cross-sectional geometry compared to regular Isamitsu offerings, while still employing the same steel and forging methods as their original knives. As per Gaku-san, "There is no difference in quality. But yours are relatively thinner than regular. We made them with the highest priority on maximizing the finest sharpness."
With a generous blade height of approximately 54mm, this gyuto is an excellent choice for tall gyuto fans who appreciate the additional knuckle clearance. The 215mm blade length is perfect for a wide range of cutting tasks, making it a versatile addition to any kitchen.
Overall length: 351mm Blade length (heel to tip): 215mm Blade height at heel: 54.1mm Spine thickness at handle: 3.4mm Spine thickness at heel: 2.9mm Spine thickness at middle: 1.6mm Spine thickness 1cm from the tip: 1.1mm Weight: 156g Edge/bevel: 50:50 Handle: octagonal rosewood Hand orientation: ambidextrous
