The Yu Kurosaki Gekko VG-XEOS Kiritsuke Gyuto 210mm is a handcrafted Japanese kitchen knife forged by renowned blacksmith Yu Kurosaki in Echizen, Japan. Featuring a core of VG-XEOS stainless steel, this gyuto offers excellent edge retention and durability. Its distinctive profile includes a curved spine, setting it apart from traditional gyuto designs. At 210mm, the blade provides an ideal balance of length and maneuverability, making it suitable for a wide range of kitchen tasks.
Unlike typical kiritsuke gyutos that feature a flatter profile, this Kurosaki k-tip gyuto retains the versatility of a traditional gyuto with a gently curved cutting edge. As a multi-purpose knife, it excels at slicing, dicing, and chopping vegetables, as well as handling boneless meats and fish with precision.
