Tadafusa Nashiji Western Walnut Gyuto 210mm
About the Tadafusa Nashiji -Ā The Tadafusa Nashiji Western sports an Aogami No.2 core and stainless nashiji finish on a curved wooden western handle, making for a great combination. For us this is a classic knife that we see a few times a year, and we are always thrilled to have them in the shops.Ā
Tadafusa is run by Tadayuki Sone ā his grandfather, Torasaburo Sone, founded Tadafusa in Sanjo way back in 1948. Sanjo has been a blacksmithing epicentre for several hundred years, and itās also home to some of the most well-respected sake distilleries and winter sports resorts.
Unsurprisingly, Sone-san has a very strong sense of civic pride. Heās dedicated to keeping all of their production in Sanjo to create local employment opportunities. This extends not just to his generation; Sone-san wants Tadafusa to stay in Sanjo so the next generation can inherit this tradition and improve upon their craft.
As president and head blacksmith, Sone-san leads a team of highly trained blacksmiths who churn out affordable, hand-forged blades without ever compromising on quality.
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.
