The Ishizuchi Gyuto 240mm is handcrafted in Tosa, Japan using generations of traditional free-forging techniques. Its Blue Steel #2 core provides outstanding edge retention, exceptional sharpness and excellent feedback on the whetstone, while the soft iron cladding adds durability and toughness. The longer 240mm blade offers increased slicing efficiency and is favoured by professional chefs for larger ingredients and extended prep sessions. Finished with a rustic Kurouchi surface and a round walnut handle, this knife combines authentic Japanese craftsmanship with everyday performance.
