Shizu Hamono - Shikisai Miyako Gyuto  

Description

The Shikisai Miyako gyuto is a high-quality chef’s knife that is perfect for a wide range of tasks in the kitchen. Made from 33 layers of Damascus steel, this knife combines the strength of high carbon molybdenum vanadium steel AUS8 with the stain resistance of low carbon SUS1A-1 to create a durable and long-lasting blade. With a blade length of 21cm and a blade hardness of HRC 58-59, the Shikisai Miyako is capable of handling everything from slicing and dicing to mincing and chopping with ease.

The Shikisai Miyako gyuto features a double-edged blade made from AUS8 stainless steel, which is resistant to stains and corrosion. The blade is sharp and precise, making it easy to produce clean, even cuts. The ferrule of the knife is made from stainless steel, while the handle is crafted from pakka wood, a type of laminated wood that is both attractive and comfortable to hold. The handle is well-balanced and easy to grip, allowing for precise and controlled cuts. The knife weighs approximately 200g, which is slightly heavier than some other options on the market.

Whether you are a professional chef or a home cook, the Shikisai Miyako gyuto is an excellent choice for all of your cutting needs. Its advanced blade design and comfortable handle make it a reliable and efficient tool that you will reach for time and time again. However, if you prefer a lighter-weight knife, you may want to consider one of the other options in the Shikisai Miyako series.
