Handmade Gyuto Knives. 250mm carbon steel blade for slicing. Visit our chef knives page.

Patinas help protect against rust. A patina effectively seals in the steel. We leave the patinas and temper patterns and colours untouched on the finished blades created from the differential clay hardening and the differential temper. The patinas tell a story of how the knife has been made and where it’s from.
