What kind of knife is this?

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 a 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 no shame in owning multiple gyuto's

The Hitohira Futana series are a great introduction into the world of Japanese kitchen knives. They offer very high quality for a reasonable price.

The Futana S3 line is made with a Yasuki Silver #3 (Ginsan) stainless core-steel and a softer stainless cladding. Full stainless blades with great performance and easy maintenance. The S3 line is made with Nashiji (rustic) and with Migaki (polished) finish.

The Futana SB line is made up of a Yasuki Blue (Aogami) Super carbon steel core and a softer stainless cladding. Very pleasant in maintenance with only the core steel being sustainable to oxidisation. The Blue Super steel will hold a great edge for a long time. The SB line is made with either Migaki (polished), Kurouchi Nashiji (dark & rustic) and Kurouchi Tsuchime (dark & hammered) finish.
