Hado Junpaku Gyuto 21 cm Shirogami #1

The Hado Junpaku chef's knife with a 210 mm blade is a versatile tool that is perfect for a variety of kitchen tasks. In addition to chopping, it also excels at cutting larger pieces of meat.

The unique kitchen knives from the Hado Junpaku series are the result of a careful manual production process. Yoshikazu Tanaka is responsible for forging the blades, while Tadataka Maruyama is responsible for finishing and sharpening them. The blades are made of a Shirogami #1 carbon steel core, also known as White #1, surrounded by protective cladding made of high-quality stainless steel. After the hardening, the knives achieve an impressive hardness of up to 63-64 HRC. In addition, both the hardening and the heat treatment of the steel translate into additional benefits, making the knives easy to sharpen and ensuring that they remain sharp for a long time. The knife handle, lacquered and octagonal in shape, is made of oak wood, which further emphasizes the aesthetics of the product.

Hado is a renowned brand specializing in the production of excellent kitchen knives that will successfully meet the expectations of even the most demanding users. They are perfect for both professional chefs and amateur cooks who appreciate the unique artistry of Japanese blacksmithing.
