The Gyuto knife was originally designed for slicing meat, hence its literal meaning, "beef knife". Gyuto kitchen knives are considered Japanese chef's knives because their blade shape, long and tapered with a sharp point, closely resembles that of a Western chef's knife. The one difference is that Japanese Gyuto knives have a slightly narrower edge angle than chef's knives.
Just like their European counterparts, they are highly versatile, making it easy to cut vegetables, meat or fish.
At Wusaki, you're spoiled for choice, since we have a wide selection of Japanese Gyuto chef's knives. Here, you can equip yourself with a Hayato X50 chef's knife with its oval fiberglass handle, or a Damas Olive VG10 Gyuto knife with its handle crafted from uniquely grained olive wood.
Our Gyuto chef's knives have blade sizes ranging from 17 to 20cm, making them very easy to handle.
