220mm Star damascus Gyuto with matching saya
This 220mm gyuto features an star mosaic pattern that was hand forged by myself out of 1084 and 15n20 high carbon steel. The knife has a full flat grind with a slightly convex edge to help aid with food release.
The handle and matching saya are made out of a single piece of Tasmanian Blackwood so the figure flows through the piece. The WA style handle features a heat darkened titanium spacer with a museum fit for longevity, whilst the saya is lined with kangaroo skin, and has matching heat dyed titanium pins along with a stainless steel and Tasmanian Blackwood retention pin.
Gyutos are the workhorse of a kitchen and can handle most kitchen tasks from dicing, slicing and mincing through to carving meat. Its versatility makes it a must have in any kitchen.
