Specifications
Hand-forged in Sakai, Japan by Yoshikazu Tanaka, this wide-bevel gyuto features an Aogami Super carbon steel core clad in soft iron with a migaki finish. This is a custom order under the Goh Umanosuke Yoshihiro brand. Compared to our previous Tanaka customs which lean toward lasers, this batch is beefier and more substantial.
The knife measures 230mm edge length with 57mm blade height and weighs 228g with a nice heft and authoritative feel. A daily driver that won't feel delicate or fragile. Thin enough for good cutting performance, robust enough that you won't baby it.
