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.

Stainless steel is super handy because it doesn’t rust or stain easily like carbon steel. That said, remember it is stain-less, not stain-never. While it is much easier to care for than high-carbon steel, it does benefit from proper use: use it, wash it, dry it and put it away. Always avoid the dishwasher!

USE  

• Only cut food you can bite through with this knife. Hard foods can chip the blade. No olive pits, bones,  lobster shells, woody stems or parmesan rinds. Cutting frozen food is especially bad  because the cold will make hard steel even more brittle. If you wouldn’t chew it with  your own teeth, don’t cut it.  

• Your cutting surface is the biggest culprit of dulling your knife. Use wood. End  grain wood is especially good. Plastic can be fine too, but certainly not glass,  granite or bamboo. 

• The edge of your knife works best sliding forwards or backwards. Scraping the  knife edge sideways will dull or damage the edge. Instead, use the spine of the knife to move foods across the cutting board. Do not twist the edge or pry with the edge, this is the worst screwdriver you ever bought and these motions will certainly  damage the edge. Listen to the knife! If you can hear the edge making a “tink”  sound on the cutting board, change what you are doing.  

CLEANING  

• After use, wash the knife by hand with regular dish soap, rinse with hot water  and dry by hand immediately. Dishwashers are very bad for knives.  

• Wood handles may dry out over time and exposure to water. Simply treat them  with some food safe wax.

STORING  

• Protect the edge for your safety and to avoid edge damage. A simple blade cover  will do the trick if you keep knives in a drawer or in a travel case.  

• The convenient wall magnet made with wood is a great way to show off your knives.  Be sure to put it back spine first, then roll it onto the blade face. This will keep the  edge from contacting the wood first.  

• The good ol’ counter top block can keep knives at the ready and protected, so  can drawer inserts. Whatever the method, it should keep the edge from touching  anything else.

Reviews

Love this knife

"I bought this at Knifewear about two years ago, and I am still as happy as day one. It's very sharp and makes it easy to prepare and serve beautiful looking food. There is no need to force the knife through food as only a gentle sliding motion does the trick. The knife itself is very well made and feels so nice to hold. The handle fits my hand perfectly. It is aging well in the sense that it's not really aging lol. There does not appear to be wear and tear on it even though it's my main knife."

— Stephanie A. (5/5)

Love the place, love the

Incroyable

"C'est la première fois que j'achète un couteau de qualité. Ce Tojiro classic est a la hauteur de mes attentes. Les poivrons et les tomates sont tellement plus facilement a tranché. Je recommande ce couteau pour rendre votre expérience de cuisine beaucoup plus facile et agréable."

— Daechan K. (5/5)

Perfect Introduction to Japanese knives!

"Very impressed with the quality and out of box edge on the Tojiro classic series as my first set of Japanese kitchen knives. After first use I’m finding my meals getting more complex as I’m compelled to cut and chop! Great value for the performance!"

— Gary W. (5/5)

great all arounder!

"great all arounder! feels awesome."

— Seung C. (5/5)

Great budget friendly knife

"This knife is great for beginner cooks. It feels great in hand and is a great middle point between western and Japanese knives. Don’t make the same mistake as me and grab a ceramic honing rod. I noticed it has slightly lost its edge and it slightly struggles on tomatoes. But a honing rod would easily fix that issue. Overall I’m very happy with this knife!"

— Denny T. (4/5)

Exceptional knives for the price

"Excellent quality for the money, simple classic design. Perfect weight"

— Jon M. (5/5)

Q&A

Good Morning by any chance do you have the Tojiro DP Gyuto 240mm?or it doesnt exist? I apologize for asking this silly question.
Hey Nestor, we do have it, you can find it here: https://knifewear.com/products/tojiro-dp-gyuto-240mm-f-809 - Ellie
Hi, how thick is the blade ?
Hi Jean-Samuel, the spine on the one I just measured was 2mm thick at the heel of the blade and tapered down to 1mm at the tip. Hope this helps, Alex
