Hitohira Tanaka Yohei Blue #1 Kasumi Gyuto 210mm Ebony Handle

The gyuto is a true all-rounder and suitable for a wide variety of cutting tasks. A go-to knife for many and an ideal shape to start out with. Based on the Western style chef’s knife, the gyuto has decent length, enough height to clear the knuckles from the cutting board and a somewhat narrow tip. It’s just as good at chopping an onion or cabbage, as slicing a roast or portioning fish. There's definitely no shame in owning multiple gyuto's.
