8" Gyuto Knife

About this item

• [ MADE IN JAPAN ] - The 8 inch Kimura Chef Knife is manufactured in Seki, Japan and is a popular choice for both professional and home chefs throughout Japan.
• [ PREMIUM JAPANESE STEEL ] - The blade is made of a High Carbon 13 Chrome Molybdenum Stainless Steel and is hand sharpened to a 15 degree angle by skilled Kimura craftsmen. The blade is heat treated to 57 HRC which offers the ideal balance between edge retention and durability with 2x the carbon content of similar kitchen knives.
• [ ERGONOMIC HANDLE ] - The POM Resin knife handle is non-slip and easy to grip offering superior comfort. Accompanied with a full bolster, the knife handle is ergonomic allowing chefs to choose between a regular, pointed finger or pinch grip.
• [ VERSATILE ] - The blade’s edge profile is a hybrid between a German Chef Knife and Japanese Gyuto combining the best of both worlds. This allows a chef to choose between the push cut or rock chop style.
• [ MADE TO LAST ] - The kitchen knife is made from a single piece of steel with a full tang that is triple riveted and bolstered, which together provides exceptional strength and durability - Kimura’s knives are sure to stand the test of time.
