Kunio 3 Layers VG1 Gyuto 180mm

L’acier VG1 est l’un des aciers spéciaux Takefu. Il contient beaucoup de carbone et l’ingrédient synthétique est un matériau d’acier de haute qualité de type fer à sable sous zéro. Bien qu’il soit facile à aiguiser, il est résistant à la flexion et son tranchant est exceptionnel car sa dureté est augmentée par l’exercice des mains du forgeron.

GYUTO (Gyu – cow & To – sword):

This is the Japanese interpretation of a Western Chef’s knife. It is flat from the handle end for about 1/3rd of the edge and then curves to the tip. It is ideal for the Western style of roll cutting.

Function – Multipurpose chef knife. For Slicing, Dicing, Mincing, Filleting and Chopping of meat, fish and vegetables.

Normal length – 180mm to 300mm.

Tip: With the edge flat for about 1/3rd of the blade – 210 mm or longer the knife-edge profile is the same as a 180mm Santoku from the handle to tip and the same as a 180mm Gyuto from the tip to handle – so essentially a 180mm Gyuto & 180mm Santoku in one knife. The 210mm is the most favoured size for most chefs.
