MAC Chef's Series 8.5" Gyuto. The MAC chef series features the same Molybdenum alloy as the original series and offers a great value. The knives have sturdy riveted handles and are thin and relatively hard for good edge holding. This is a great introduction to Japanese knives and you will be surprised and very pleased if you have been using thicker, softer steel knives like many German brands when you see how well these cut.
