Description
Knife blade for a gyuto (chef's knife) of 210 mm from Hatsukokoro, the Irodori series. The blade is sold without a handle, with a traditional tang, ready for a handle you choose yourself.
The core is Aogami 2 (Blue #2), a carbon steel. The Damascus pattern is darkened with kurozome, and the edge is sharpened 50/50.
You will find handles among our knife handles. Ask us about fitting in the workshop. Carbon steel can rust, so dry the blade after use. We sharpen it in the workshop when it needs it.

About the knife type: Gyuto (chef's knife)
A gyuto is a Japanese chef's knife for all everyday kitchen work. It is similar to a Western chef's knife, but is often lighter with a thinner blade.
The profile is long and even with a pointed tip. It slices, chops and minces fish, meat and vegetables. The length lets you slice in a single cut and keep the fibres intact.
About the steel: Blue #2 (Aogami #2)
