Ginsu - Chikara Series Forged 19-Piece Japanese Knife Set - with 420J Stainless Steel Kitchen Knives and Bamboo Block - Black

The KOTAI Gyuto is meticulously handmade using premium 440C Japanese stainless steel, containing twice the carbon of many other high end steels for superior hardness and edge retention. Heat treated to HRC 60 ±1, this blade remains razor sharp cut after cut, offering exceptional performance for slicing meats, vegetables, herbs, and more. Each blade features a traditional Japanese Tsuchime hammered pattern, creating tiny air pockets that reduce friction and prevent food from sticking. This not only enhances cutting efficiency but adds a distinctive artisanal aesthetic to your kitchen toolset.

Forged from a full piece of steel running through the handle, the Gyuto's hidden full tang construction offers exceptional strength, balance, and durability—built to withstand years of intensive kitchen use.
