This light and nimble gyuto has an extremely thin blade and will appeal to "laser gyuto" enthusiasts.

A gyuto is a type of Japanese kitchen knife that is used for a variety of cutting tasks. This multipurpose knife is used for slicing, dicing, and chopping meats, vegetables, and fruits. The versatility of the Gyuto makes it a popular choice for both professional and home chefs.
