A note about measurements: Handmade Japanese knives can vary in their dimensions, so these measurements are only an example.
The Miyabi Black is a beaut! Its soft grey colours is appealing to the eyes. The ZDP-189 steel gives amazing performance. Cuts like a laser and keeps an edge until the universe cools and all atoms stop moving, or about two years, whichever comes first.
About the shape Inspired by the profile of a traditional European chef knife, Gyutos are a multi purpose knife with a slight meat cutting bias. “Gyuto” translates to “cow sword.” If you want one knife to do it all, This is it. Starting at 180mm, Gyutos can reach the ridiculously long (and awesome) 370mm. For the at-home or professional cook, we recommend a Gyuto which measures between 210mm and 270mm long.
