The Iseya Gyuto
Iseya knives are handmade by Yoshinori Seto using molybdenum stainless steel - a hand-finished blade construction that ensures strength and integrity throughout. Molybdenum stainless steel is a practical, high-performing alloy prized for its superior edge retention, sharpness, and stain resistance - an excellent choice for cooks who want Japanese blade performance with minimal maintenance. The gyuto is the Japanese chef's knife - a curved, versatile blade designed for protein work, vegetable prep, and general kitchen tasks. At 180mm it is the compact option - ideal for smaller cutting boards, home kitchens, or cooks who prefer a shorter, more manoeuvrable blade for everyday prep. The black pakka wood handle is durable, moisture-resistant, and comfortable in the hand.
Care & Maintenance
- Hand wash only - never dishwasher
- Dry immediately after each use
- Hone regularly with a ceramic or fine honing rod
- Sharpen on Japanese water stones
- Do not use on frozen food or bones - the blade can chip
- Store on a magnetic strip or in a knife block - avoid loose drawers
