Specifications
The Kei Kobayashi SG2 Gyuto 210mm is a premium Japanese kitchen knife handcrafted from SG2 powdered stainless steel. The razor-sharp blade features a migaki finish for a minimalist look, while the heptagonal urushi handle provides a comfortable grip and precise control. Designed for versatility, this gyuto excels in various kitchen tasks and is ideal for Japanese cuisine and culinary professionals.
This is one of our top recommendations for a laser gyuto—a Japanese kitchen knife with exceptionally thin geometry, allowing for precise, effortless cuts. The acute edge minimizes resistance, making it a preferred choice among chefs seeking efficiency and refinement.
