Takayuki Grand Chef Gyuto 210mm. The Takayuki Grand Chef Gyuto is made from the highly regarded Swedish Stainless Steel called Bohler N690. The iron used to make this alloy is excavated from the Böhler-Uddeholm company mines and contains an extremely low amount of phosphorus and sulfur and boasts some of the lowest impurities of any stainless steel. This results in a steel that is regarded as one of the finest stainless steels in the world. Bohler N690 Stainless Steel offers exceptional sharpness as well as abrasion and corrosion resistance and will stay that way over many years of service. This is an essential requirement in many home or professional kitchens.
The Sakai Takayuki company can be traced to the origins of sword making in Sakai, Japan, nearly 600 years ago. This current version of the company was established in 1946, and has since become one of the biggest manufacturers of Japanese knives in the world. Their products span the entire gamut of kitchen cutlery. In 1982, Takayuki received the high honor of having their knives designated as Traditional Arts and Crafts.

1 review(s) WRITE A REVIEW (Reviews are subject to approval) AMAZING Blade- Average HandlePosted By: Shaked T
The blade is amazingly thin and able to take a great edge, it cuts without wedging on all of the food that I put it through. Unfortunately, the handle leaves a little to be desired, as it doesn't feel the best in hand. Fortunately, for people with medium to small hands, your palm will be focused on the plastic ferrule when holding the knife in a pinch grip. I'll probably end up replacing the handle in the near future to something nicer feeling. Definitely do not regret picking this one up!
