With a double bevel and a curved profile, the blade suits both rocking and push-cut techniques, and its height keeps the fingers clear of the board. Vegetables, meat and fish all go under the same blade, making it a chef's knife for daily use. Keeping the blade straight at the board protects the edge.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe name gyuto literally means \"beef sword\". It dates back to the Meiji era, when Western cuisine took hold in Japan and the European chef's knife found its Japanese, double-bevel counterpart. The name is misleading: the blade is not limited to meat and works just as well on vegetables and fish. This model is fitted with a cherry (sakura) handle and a 240 mm blade.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe blade is made of \u003cstrong\u003eGinsan\u003c\/strong\u003e (Silver Steel), a stainless steel with a high chromium content. It resists corrosion under normal conditions and does not develop a patina: the surface stays bright over time. On water stones it responds quickly and can be taken to a very fine edge. Regular sharpening on stones maintains that edge, and between sharpenings a few passes on leather realign the edge. This low-maintenance routine keeps the blade ready for everyday tasks.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCare\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eHand wash, then dry the blade after use. Do not put it in the dishwasher. No camellia oil is needed for storage.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Baba Hamono","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67875460120750,"sku":null,"price":560.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0622\/8600\/4398\/files\/kagekiyo-ginsan-oboroba-gyuto-240mm-sakura-1_5d8c84b5-7b27-46c2-9c55-077b19ee4d62.jpg?v=1793174718","url":"https:\/\/staysharpmtl.com\/en\/products\/kagekiyo-ginsan-oboroba-gyuto-240mm-sakura","provider":"Stay Sharp","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
