Specifications

The Toyama gyuto and petty combo includes two hand-forged Japanese knives crafted in Sanjo by 83-year-old blacksmith Shuji Toyama. Both knives feature Aogami #2 carbon steel cores with iron-clad Damascus construction. Toyama knives are known for their exceptional cutting performance, with blades that cut cleanly through ingredients with minimal resistance. The 244mm gyuto handles general kitchen tasks while the 153mm petty is suited for detailed work like trimming vegetables and slicing garlic. The heat treatment brings out the best qualities of Aogami #2 steel, balancing hardness for edge retention with enough toughness for daily kitchen work. The steel sharpens easily and maintains its edge through regular use. The iron cladding will develop a natural patina over time with use.

FAQ

Why is the blade length different from the displayed size? The size in the product title is a nominal reference used by knife makers. The actual blade can be slightly longer or shorter due to handcrafting and traditional sizing. Each product page lists the exact measured length.

When will out-of-stock items be restocked? We carry limited, rotating stock. Once something sells out, we don't necessarily reorder it right away. It could be months before that item comes back, if at all. We bring in new knives regularly, but they're not always the same ones. Our newsletter is the best way to stay updated on new arrivals.

What payment methods do you accept? Visa, Mastercard, Amex, PayPal, Apple Pay, Google Pay, and Shop Pay. No cash on delivery.
