Forged by our skilled friend Nguyên from the Hanoi region of Vietnam, this knife is truly one of a kind—Model 1 of 1. Forged with a 52100 carbon steel core and stainless steel with bronze Damascus cladding, it’s a perfect blend of tradition and artistry.

Beyond its stunning looks, this knife is built for serious performance. With incredible edge retention and a thin-behind-the-edge geometry, it glides through ingredients effortlessly. Every knife Nguyên creates is unique, making this piece not just a tool, but a work of art.

If you could have just one knife in the kitchen, a Gyuto would be a solid choice. Ranging from 210mm to 270mm, it’s got a taller heel for better control and a shape that makes it super versatile. The flat edge near the heel is perfect for chopping, the curved belly near the tip works great for rocking cuts, and the pointed tip gives you precision when you need it. No wonder so many chefs reach for a Gyuto over other models!

At first glance, Gyutos might look similar to Western chef’s knives, but there’s a key difference—Japanese made or Japanese-Style Gyutos are lighter and thinner, making them easier to handle and a dream to work with.
