Collection: Gyuto

The gyuto (literally “cow sword") is Japan’s answer to the Western chef’s knife, created in response to shifting tastes during the late 19th century. As Western dining habits entered Japan and beef gained popularity, local artisans saw a need for a versatile knife that could handle a range of tasks, from slicing meats to delicate vegetable work. Modeled after Western chef’s knives, the gyuto brings a Japanese touch: it’s lighter, razor-sharp, and features somewhat straighter edge, allowing for a more agile and precise experience.

Today, the gyuto has a place in kitchens worldwide, appreciated for its adaptability and clean lines. It’s a tool that embodies Japanese craftsmanship and practicality, blending tradition with modern utility in one seamless design.
