Gyuto

A gyuto knife is a versatile Japanese knife that is similar to a Western chef’s knife, but with some distinctive features. A gyuto knife has a thin and light blade that is usually between 210mm and 270mm in length. The blade has a pointed tip for precision work, a slightly curved edge for rocking and slicing, and a flat heel for chopping. A gyuto knife can be used for cutting various kinds of food, such as meat, fish, vegetables, and fruits, but it has a slight bias toward meat cutting¹³. The name “gyuto” means “cow sword” in Japanese, indicating its original purpose as a butcher’s knife. A gyuto knife is a great choice for anyone who wants a single knife that can handle most kitchen tasks with ease and agility.
