Benefits

A 1K6 stainless blade with a hammered polished finish: The listing names the blade material as 1K6 stainless steel and describes a hammered, polished finish. The stainless steel resists rust, and the dimpled surface gives the blade a distinctive texture.

A round handle of red plywood: The listing names the handle as red plywood with a round shape. The photos show a warm red-brown grip joined to the blade with a dark ferrule, which is comfortable to hold in a pinch or a full grip.

A 240 mm blade at a listed 170 grams: The listing gives the blade length as 240 mm and the weight as 170 g. Those figures tell you how the knife will handle before you order it from us. These details tell you exactly what you are getting before you order.

A long 240 mm gyuto for roasts and fish: The blade is 240 mm long in the gyuto shape, the all-round Western-style chef's knife. At 170 g it stays easy to control, and the length slices roasts, whole fish and large vegetables in one stroke.

A stainless blade that is easy to look after: The blade is stainless steel, which resists rust and staining. A quick hand wash and a dry with a cloth after cutting keeps the knife clean, and a whetstone restores the edge when the cut softens over time.
