Nigara Hamono SG Strix Gyuto 24 cm Buffalo

The Nigara Hamono SG Strix Gyuto 24 cm Buffalo is a full size chef knife designed for precise and efficient kitchen work. The Gyuto profile offers versatility and control, making it suitable for slicing meat, fish, and vegetables while supporting long, smooth cutting strokes.

The blade features a core of SG Strix powdered stainless steel, known for high hardness, corrosion resistance, and refined edge performance. With a hardness of 64 to 65 HRC, it delivers strong edge retention and stable cutting performance. Stainless cladding enhances durability and simplifies maintenance.

The blade is finished in Damascus with Tsuchime texture, combining visual depth with practical function. The layered steel pattern adds character, while the hammered surface helps reduce food sticking. A thin grind and double bevel geometry allow smooth cutting and precise control.

The walnut wood handle with buffalo horn ferrule provides secure grip and balanced handling. Its octagonal shape supports stability and comfort during extended use.
