The Gyuto is Japan’s answer to the western chef knife, in a country where the food culture has given birth to a myriad of highly specialised knives with specific jobs, the gyuto is an all round knife to cover all the bases. It was created in the latter part of the 19c after the son of a prominent Japanese blacksmith visited the west to investigate new knife making technologies, he returned with a few samples and a load of ideas and ever since then it has evolve into the hugely popular style we recognise today.
 With is stainless cladding and core steel made from AUS 10 the NDH is a great range for those looking to use handmade Japanese knives but still a little nervous of caring for carbon steel. As is typical of handmade Japanese knives it's ground to be thin behind the cutting edge, ensuring a smooth and easy cut. 
 In addition to providing aesthetic appeal the Tsuchime or hammered Damascus cladding also provides greatly improved food release, particularly useful when slicing vegetables.
Finished to an excellent standard they would make a great choice for keen home cooks or professionals working within the industry.  
Please not that items currently in stock have plain oak rather than zelkova handles.
