Made in Japan, the Shusaku series is forged by Hokiyama from Ginsan #3 Silver, know to be stainless and incredibly sharp. Well priced, they offer an amazing value for your money with their upraded blade finish showing a mix between tsuchime at the top and damascus at the bottom. Hardened to 61 HRC to hold a great edge without being too brittle, they are thin behind the edge and more than capable to get the job done! These won't disappoint!

Gyutos are known as the only knife needed in the kitchen. The blades typically range from 210mm to 270mm in length and are appreciated for their taller heel. Gyuto’s are a great option for most as they have a reasonably flat profile toward the heel for chopping, a belly toward the tip of the blade for rock cutting, and a pointed tip for precision work, which is why many chefs prefer a Gyuto over many other models.
