The 210mm
gyuto is, hands down, the most popular knife among home cooks. It is the perfectly sized blade for use in the home kitchen where cutting board real estate is at a premium. It also has a lightness and nimble feel to it that allows for its use in all kinds of cutting, slicing, and chopping scenarios. The HD steel is heat treated to a hardness of 61 Rockwell, which results in an easy-to-sharpen edge with an ability to maintain that edge even after the longest work session. This fine blade is attached to a beautifully finished laurel octagonal handle.
