Description
Hand-hammered, sheathed, ready for anything.
A hand-hammered Japanese gyuto with a Damascus-pattern VG-MAX stainless blade, a stabilized burl wood and resin handle, and a fitted wooden saya.
The long, gently curved edge rocks through herbs, glides through proteins and handles everyday vegetable prep, so it is the knife you reach for first.
The hammered (tsuchime) finish helps food release from the blade, and no two burl wood handles look the same. The wooden saya protects the edge in the drawer or on the move.
Why it feels different
- VG-MAX stainless steel: a fine, lasting edge with a layered Damascus pattern.
- Hand-hammered finish: helps slices fall away from the blade.
- Burl wood and resin handle: every handle is one of a kind.
- Wooden saya: a fitted sheath that protects the edge.
What's in the box
- 8" gyuto chef's knife

Details

- Handle: Stabilized burl wood and resin

Care
Hand wash and dry the blade straight after use, then store it so the edge does not touch other metal. Cut on wood or soft plastic boards, never glass or stone. Hone regularly and sharpen on a whetstone when the edge starts to drag. Not for the dishwasher.

The usual knife vs. this one
Why most knives get replaced.
A knife you dread using stays in the drawer.
Without
A typical knife
- Dulls within weeks
- Heavy and tiring
- Plain stamped look
- Wobbly handle
With
8" Hammered Gyuto
- VG-MAX steel — holds a fine edge
- Hammered — food releases
- Burl wood — one of a kind
- Saya — edge protected
Why it works
Three reasons it gets used every day.
-
01VG-MAX steel
A VG-MAX super-steel core holds a fine, keen edge through daily prep, so you hone less and cut more.
-
02Hand-hammered
The hand-hammered surface creates small air pockets that help slices fall away instead of sticking to the blade.
-
03Wooden saya
A fitted wooden saya protects the edge in a drawer or on the move, and keeps fingers safe when you reach for it.

Straight answers
The questions people ask right before they buy.
Is this a good first Japanese knife?
Yes. The gyuto is the most versatile Japanese shape and covers nearly every everyday task.
Can it cut bones or frozen food?
No. Use a cleaver for bones and let frozen food thaw first.
Can it go in the dishwasher?
No. Hand wash and dry it straight away.
