The Japanese word Gyuto (牛刀) literally translates to beef sword. The gyuto is the equivalent of the Western chef's knife, and is designed to cut everything: vegetables, meats and fishes. It is made to be used with the push-cut method, lifting the blade between each cutting motion, or with the rocking motion method. It is important that the blade is straight upon impact with the cutting board to avoid damage to the knife edge.
Manufactured in Echizen in the Fukui region by the Takamura Forge, Hitohira's TP SG2 line is as efficient as it is elegant. The powder-metallurgy Super Gold 2(SG2) steel is known for its higher-than-average cutting retention and breathtaking sharpness. The red Pakka handles are emblematic of this line and are comfortable in the hand.
