Zakuri Kurouchi Gyuto 24 cm Aogami #1

The 240 mm Zakuri Gyuto Knife is a masterpiece of craftsmanship, ideal for chefs who want a tool that can handle any culinary task. Its versatility makes it indispensable in any kitchen, both professional and home, for those who value quality and reliability.

Made by talented blacksmiths in Tosa, the Zakuri Gyuto knife is a work of applied art. The Aogami #1 carbon steel used in its production is not only durable, but also retains its sharpness for long periods of time. The authentic Kurouchi finish not only gives each knife a unique look, but also protects the blade from corrosion and loss of shine. Heat treatment to a hardness of 62-64 HRC gives the sharp edge the durability required for the most difficult kitchen tasks.

The D-shaped handle, made of chestnut wood, provides comfort and stability, which is crucial for precise cutting. It also provides a natural and ergonomic fit to the shape of the hand, minimizing fatigue during prolonged use. Although Aogami #1 steel is not stainless, which means that the knife must be dried after each use, the extra care taken with the knife translates into years of reliable service.

The Zakuri Gyuto is not just a knife; it is a reflection of the passion and tradition of blacksmithing, ideal for chefs who seek perfection in every aspect of their work.
