About Hatsukokoros - The Hatsukokoro series encompasses a wide range of knives, forged and crafted by some of the best knife makers in Japan. They work with a wide variety of artisans, from blacksmiths to knife sharpeners and handle makers. By working with folks who have mastered their craft, each aspect of the knife is carefully curated.

Techniques range from traditional hand-forging to modern roll-forging, with a broad spectrum of steels, both raw, reactive carbon steel and high-tech stainless steels. The maker and material are hand-selected to perfectly suit the intended line; be it an affordable knife for home cooks, or high-performance masterpieces for collectors.
About the Shape - Inspired by the profile of a traditional European chef knife, Gyutos are a multi purpose knife with a slight meat cutting bias. “Gyuto” translates to “cow sword.” If you want one knife to do it all, This is it. Starting at 180mm, Gyutos can reach the ridiculously long (and awesome) 370mm. For the at-home or professional cook, we recommend a Gyuto which measures between 210mm and 270mm long.
