The Yoshikuni series of Yoshihiro Cutlery are the vanguard of Japanese cutlery, representing the highest level of craftsmanship. Crafted by master artisans and finished with the ancient techniques of Japanese sword polishing, our Yoshikuni Double-Sided Hollow Ground Gyuto Chef Knives are unparalleled in their performance. Forged from a single piece of VG-1 Steel (HRC61), our high Carbon stainless steel knives provide peace of mind in high paced environments. Featuring double sided hollow ground indentations throughout the blade help prevent food from sticking and create air pockets that glide through food. Our Yoshikuni Double-Sided Hollow Ground Gyuto Chef Knives are also complimented with a premium Western style high-grade composite wood handle that extends to the full tang of the knife and is NSF certified for use in commercial kitchens, ergonomically welding to the hand for seamless use. A protective wooden sheath called a Saya encases each knife and adds to its appearance when not in use. The most versatile and essential of all knives a cook can have is a Japanese chef knife known as a Gyuto knife. Preparing delicious meals starts with taking wholesome ingredients and using the best tools such as a high quality chef knife to make every meal into something special. From dicing, slicing, and chopping fresh produce from a farmers market to carving a roast chicken straight from the oven, even the simplest tasks are elevated with a handcrafted knife that is as beautiful as it is functional. Japanese knives should always be sharpened and honed on premium quality Japanese water stones.
