At 270mm in SK carbon tool steel, this is the long-format chef's knife for cooks who work at scale: confident, sweeping cuts through large proteins, whole fish, and big vegetables where a shorter blade would need two passes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eThe Specs\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSteel: SK steel (Japanese high-carbon tool steel)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStyle: Chef's knife (Japanese Gyuto \/ Western-influenced)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlade length: 270mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOrigin: Japan\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaker: Hisashige (personal maker's stamp)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCondition: Vintage \/ second-hand - one-of-a-kind piece\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eHeritage and Character\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 270mm chef's knife is the professional end of the Japanese knife spectrum - demanding in technique but rewarding in output. SK steel at this length means a blade that sharpens predictably on water stones and holds a working edge through a full service. Hisashige's personal stamp means one maker was responsible for this knife from start to finish: forged, ground, and finished by a single hand. A rare opportunity to own a long-format vintage Japanese chef's knife with genuine provenance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eCare and Maintenance\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHand wash only - never dishwasher\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDry immediately after use to prevent rust\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHone regularly on a smooth steel or fine ceramic rod\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSharpen on Japanese water stones (1000\/3000 grit)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStore on a magnetic rack or in a knife roll - never loose in a drawer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Chef \u0026 a Knife","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55598749286691,"sku":"VTG-HISASHIGE-GY210-2302","price":115.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0261\/1819\/3230\/files\/A8198F27-0BBA-4816-A7C2-9FB1A3DFAC08.jpg?v=1789852249","url":"https:\/\/chefandaknife.com.au\/products\/hisashige-saku-chefs-knife-210mm-2302","provider":"Chef \u0026 a knife","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
