The Nigara tsuchime kurouchi SG2 kiritsuke gyuto is a handmade Japanese chef's knife by Nigara Hamono. Crafted from SG2 stainless steel, it offers excellent edge retention and easy maintenance without the need to worry about rust. The blade showcases an attractive geometric tsuchime pattern, complemented by a kurouchi finish. The knife features a western-style handle made of karin wood which offers a beautiful, warm reddish-brown color with an attractive grain pattern. Karin wood is prized for its durability and resistance to moisture, making it an excellent choice for knife handles.
The gyuto, a versatile all-purpose knife, excels at a wide range of kitchen tasks, including chopping, slicing, and mincing vegetables, as well as handling meat and fish.
