Premium Tsunehisa Aogami Super Kurouchi Tsuchime Gyuto Japanese Chef Knife 210mm - High Carbon Steel Blade for Professional Cooking, Sushi, and Meat Cutting

Tsunehisa Aogami Super Kurouchi Tsuchime Gyuto 210mm - Japanese Chef's Knife

This Tsunehisa 210mm gyuto is crafted from Aogami Super (AS), a top-grade steel known for its exceptional edge retention and easy sharpening. To keep this high-performance edge in peak condition, we recommend taking advantage of our professional sharpening service to ensure it stays razor-sharp over time.

AS, also known as Blue Super, stands out as one of our favorite steels due to its high carbon and chromium content, making it both incredibly hard and slightly more resistant to corrosion. Combined with a stainless steel cladding, the blade gains added protection against wear and impact while maintaining a durable, razor-sharp edge.

The tsuchime, or hammered finish, not only enhances the blade's aesthetic appeal but also improves food release, ensuring smooth, efficient cutting. This 210mm gyuto is a versatile and popular choice among home chefs and professionals working in compact spaces. It features a well-proportioned flat spot from the heel that transitions into a gentle curve towards a finely crafted tip, making it perfect for various cutting techniques.
