Japanese Kitchen Knife Gyutou 180mm

The Gyutou (or Gyuto) knife is a traditional Japanese kitchen tool considered the Japanese version of the chef’s knife. The word "Gyutou" literally means "beef" in Japanese, suggesting it was originally used for slicing meat.

This knife features a distinctive, slightly curved blade, longer than that of a Santoku knife. The blade is thin, sharp, and very precise, making it ideal for various kitchen tasks.

The Gyutou knife is versatile and suitable for many culinary tasks, particularly suited for different types of meat. It can be used for slicing, chopping, dicing, and performing precise cutting movements.

The Gyutou knife is popular among both professional chefs and home cooks worldwide. Its versatility, precision, and ease of use make it an excellent tool for everyday cooking.
