Specifications
The Ittosai Kotetsu nashiji ginsan gyuto 210mm is a Japanese chef's knife from Tosa, Kochi, Japan. This gyuto features a distinctive nashiji finish and a stainless steel core made from Ginsan, known for its easy maintenance and excellent sharpenability. Ginsan is often referred to as the 'stainless shirogami' due to its sharpening characteristics being similar to that of carbon steel. The Ittosai Kotetsu nashiji ginsan gyuto offers a great balance of edge retention, toughness, and sharpenability, making it an excellent workhorse for both home cooks and professional chefs alike.
Note: This nashiji ginsan gyuto is the same knife as the Yoshihiro nashiji ginsan we offered before, just with a different brand name. You may also find this knife sold under other brands like Tsunehisa, Hitohira, and more.
