Knifewear’s Top 5 Gyutos of 2023
As a person who worked as a line cook for many years preparing and cooking food for 8 hours a day, I find it hard to believe that a Gyuto isn’t the holy grail in everyone's knife set. The shape lends itself perfectly to working quickly while also being hella versatile. Gyutos can cut big stuff like giant cabbages, bunches of carrots and celery, while perfectly breaking down onions (in my case it was vast bunches of Green Onions, 45-degree bias cuts). Don’t get me wrong, though; it can just as easily take care of all the small stuff like mincing ginger, garlic, shallots, and more.
Here is a list of the best Gyutos of various sizes that will be welcome in anyone’s set, whether they are brand new to cooking, just starting their knife collection, or a seasoned kitchen veteran.
