Yoshihiro VG10 16 Layer Hammered Damascus Gyuto Chef's Knife (7'' (180mm))

Yoshihiro Cutlery, a company specializing in handcrafted premium Japanese kitchen knives, proudly presents the Yoshihiro VG-10 Hammered Damascus Gyuto Chefs Knife, made in Japan.

The origins of the techniques used to create Yoshihiro knives date back to medieval Japanese sword smiths who perfected the handling of fire, iron, and water. The Gyuto Chefs Knife is forged and hammered with 16 layers of steel in the Damascus tradition, featuring a VG-10 core. This series has been a perennial bestseller, combining performance, beauty, and extraordinary value.

The Gyuto, the most versatile and essential of all knives a cook can have, is a Japanese chefs knife with a curved blade that smoothly rocks back and forth, with an extended tip for quick chopping. It can be used to cut meat, fish, and vegetables with ease.

Proudly handcrafted in Japan by master artisans, this knife is complemented with a premium Western-style Mahogany handle that extends to the full tang of the knife, ergonomically welding to the hand for seamless use. The hammered texture of the blade eliminates friction and keeps food from sticking.

Preparing delicious meals starts with taking wholesome ingredients and using the best tools, such as a high-quality chef's knife, to make every meal into something special. From dicing, slicing, and chopping fresh produce from a farmer's market to carving a roast chicken straight from the oven, even the simplest tasks are elevated with this handcrafted knife that is as beautiful as it is functional.

Traditional Japanese knife making values a sharp edge, which requires attention and care. Sharpening and honing should be done with only water whetstones. Hand wash and dry immediately after use, especially when working with acidic ingredients. Do not use on objects such as bones, nutshells, and frozen foods.
