At 61 HRC it holds a keen working edge through daily prep while remaining practical to maintain on Japanese water stones. The VG10 core is forged between two layers of damascus-patterned stainless steel using the Suminagashi technique - a traditional Japanese forging method that produces the distinctive flowing pattern visible on the blade flat. The outer layers protect the core from damage and oxidation. At 210mm this gyuto is the most versatile size in the range - long enough to break down proteins and large vegetables efficiently, compact enough for precise work.
