Ryusen Oukokuryu Gyuto 240mm
About the Shape - Inspired by the profile of a traditional European chef knife, Gyutos are a multi-purpose knife with a slight meat cutting bias. āGyutoā translates to ācow sword.ā If you want one knife to do it all, This is it. Starting at 180mm, Gyutos can reach the ridiculously long (and awesome) 370mm. For the at-home or professional cook, we recommend a Gyuto which measures between 210mm and 270mm long.
About Ryusen Oukokuryu - Ryusen Hamono was founded in 1948 as a knife sharpening company. They worked with companies like Takefu Special Steel as early as the 1970s to develop high-quality knives made with stainless steel, at a time when most other knife makers were struggling to produce decent stainless steel knives. Now, they have expanded their collection of knives not only having sharpness and longevity in mind but with a sleek modern design.
The Oukokuryu (shining black dragon) series is the pinnacle of high-end Japanese knife design. The blade is forged from super-hard SG2 stainless steel, known for superior edge-retention and laser-sharpness. The ornate poplar handle is the crown jewel on the 98-layer damascus masterpiece.
