This chef's knife is celebrated worldwide for its 'laser-thin' profile and extraordinary cutting performance. Crafted for those who demand surgical precision, it bridges the gap between traditional blacksmithing and modern metallurgical science.\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003ch6\u003eUnrivaled Cutting Performance\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003ch6\u003eThe core of this blade is forged from High Speed Powdered Steel, a material renowned for reaching extreme hardness levels. This allows the edge to be ground significantly thinner than standard kitchen knives, providing a sensation of gliding through ingredients rather than cutting them. The double-bevel edge is hand-honed by master craftsmen to ensure out-of-the-box sharpness that lasts through intensive professional use.\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003ch6\u003eMasterful Ergonomics\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003ch6\u003eThe handle is constructed from water-resistant Pakka wood, meticulously shaped to provide a seamless transition between the blade and the grip. This ergonomic focus ensures that the knife remains comfortable during long prep sessions, reducing hand fatigue. The balance point is carefully calibrated to offer a nimble feel, making it ideal for intricate slicing and rapid dicing tasks alike.\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBlade Material\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eR2\/HSPS High Speed Powdered Steel\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBlade Length\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e180mm (7.1 inches)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHandle Material\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDurable Pakka Wood\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eKnife Type\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eGyuto (Chef's Knife)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eEdge Style\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDouble Bevel (50\/50)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eConstruction\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSan Mai (3-layer)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOrigin\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eEchizen, Japan\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Takamura Hamono","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43681919795311,"sku":"TKHA-GYUKNF-HS180","price":248.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0641\/9546\/1231\/files\/P-1-TKHA-GYUKNF-HS180-Takamura_Hamono_High_Speed_Steel_Gyuto_Knife_180mm.jpg?v=1759018305","url":"https:\/\/japansprime.com\/th\/products\/takamura-hamono-r2-hsps-gyuto-knife-180mm-professional-chefs-blade","provider":"JapansPrime","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
