This version of my Classic Gyuto has a 230mm long blade made in differentially hardened high-carbon steel; the blade cheeks have been left with a hand forged finish.

Differential hardening is a method used for a harder, sharper cutting edge and a relatively softer spine to ensure toughness in the blade.

The handle is made from stabilised English Walnut with an African Blackwood bolster and has my signature ‘hallmark’ mosaic pin set into the end of the handle.
