Tetsuhiro KD Gyuto 175 mm kitchen knives

The Gyuto type knife is the primary knife in every amateur and professional kitchen. It is a multifunctional knife, suitable for working with meat, fish and vegetables. The Gyuto corresponds to the European chef's knife. The curved blade line facilitates chopping with a rocking motion, while the sharp tip is useful for filleting and carving. The sufficiently wide Gyuto knife blade width allows you to transfer cut products directly to a pot or pan. With this knife, we can cut large pieces of meat and chop cabbage, and each cut will be perfectly smooth and without cracks. If you are looking for your first Japanese knife, the Gyuto is an excellent choice.

Characteristic features.

KD series knives attract attention with a striking Damascus pattern on the blade made of VG-10 steel. Each knife is unique; you won't find two identical ones. The blades made of high-quality VG-10 steel have been hardened to 61 HRC, giving them high hardness and incredible sharpness. The understated style is complemented by a black, European-style, micarta handle. It is crowned by a stainless steel ring, which protects against moisture ingress and facilitates knife cleaning.
