Introducing our VG-10 Hammered Damascus Gyuto Chef Knife, a true masterpiece that combines exceptional craftsmanship with modern performance. Forged with 46 layers of steel in the traditional Damascus style and featuring a VG-10 core, this knife stands out for its remarkable beauty and outstanding value. It is complemented by a handcrafted Octagonal Shitan Rosewood Handle, which not only adds elegance but also ensures a comfortable grip for seamless use.

The Gyuto knife, often referred to as a Japanese chef's knife, is renowned for its versatility in the kitchen. With a curved blade that allows for smooth rocking motions and an extended tip for quick chopping, it excels in preparing a variety of ingredients, from meat and fish to vegetables. Whether you're dicing fresh produce from a farmer's market or carving a roast chicken, this handcrafted knife elevates even the simplest culinary tasks into extraordinary experiences.

Proudly made in Japan, the VG-10 Hammered Damascus Gyuto is not just a tool but a testament to traditional Japanese knife-making techniques that prioritize a sharp edge. The hammered texture of the blade reduces friction, preventing food from sticking, making your prep work more efficient. Each knife is equipped with a protective wooden Saya, enhancing its appearance while safeguarding it during storage.

To maintain the knife's exceptional performance, we recommend using only water whetstones for sharpening and honing. Hand wash and dry immediately after use, especially when working with acidic ingredients, and avoid cutting through bones, nutshells, or frozen foods. The Gyuto, literally translating to "beef sword," was originally designed for cutting meat, but it has become an essential tool for any cook seeking to create delicious meals with ease and precision. Elevate your kitchen experience with the unmatched beauty and functionality of our VG-10 Hammered Damascus Gyuto Chef Knife.

Remember, Japanese knives should always be sharpened and honed on premium-quality Japanese water stones to maintain their exquisite performance and longevity.
