Classic style high carbon steel chef knife ( Gyuto ) from Aritsugu.
The blade is made of high carbon steel that holds the edge very well and the thin blade profile allows you to cut effortlessly without forcing.
Aritsugu is one of the highest regarded knife makers in Japan proudly forging blades over 400 years.

Like many other traditional Japanese knives, these knives leave Aritsugu without actual cutting edges ( secondary edge, Honba ) and then they are hand - sharpened for perfection at here by our in house knife master Masaaki Saito before being shipped.
Handle is made of durable Black Pakka Wood ( Resin composited under high pressure for density ) secured with 2 rivets.
180mm/ 210mm come with boxy straight handle while 240mm has a slightly curved handle outline with a butt at the end ( Please refer the photo ).
Please note that this knife is made of high carbon steel and the blade will rust or tarnish if not maintained properly.

Please wash, wipe dry after use and keep in cool dry area and oil the blade if necessary.
Rust eraser or cleansing compound ( like Jif ) can be used to keep the blade free of rust / stains.
Add an optional knife sheath ( Saya ) to protect your knife from damages while carrying.
