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.
TOJIRO ATELIER - These beautiful knives represent the sexier side of practicality. The durable stainless steel core is layered with softer Damascus steel
to protect the cutting edge. Hand forged by Tomoo Matsumura-san in Tsubame city, the TOJIRO ATELIER series feels sharper than most stainless knives and is the perfect choice for a chef that desires a little more style. Tough, yet attractive, what more could you ask for in a knife?
VG-10 is a steel designed to make knives; it brings sharpness, toughness and stain resistance together in the best combination possible. The result being a mind-blowingly sharp edge that stays sharp a crazy long time. Compared to other stainless steel, it is a dream to sharpen. You’ll never see your food discolour or have to pick up a rusty knife.

"I love everything about this knife"
"Instantly became my new number one"
"We call our Gyuto ‘Big Brother’ as we use it for bigger jobs. Excellent compliment to my collection of Japanese knives."
"This knife performs even better than it looks! I purchased the nakiri in this line first and was so impressed I had to have the 210mm gyuto. The feel of this knife and the cutting performance is second to none with a perfect profile for push cutting and also chopping as well. It’s always a pleasure to do business with the great staff at Knifewear!!"
"From the first time we picked it up and tested it in store, we knew this was a knife we needed in our kitchen. Perfect weight and balance and you cannot beat the look of it. You can tell it means business! We have used it for food preparation and to slice meat so far. I can see it becoming a go to knife in the kitchen on larger tasks."
"Not only is it beautiful but its easy to clean and maintain. It handles like a petty because of the small width. This has become my favorite knife and it truly feels like an extension of my hand. I might buy the larger petty some time soon"
"Very good knife awesome hand feel great weight and looks incredible! Only slight knock is it can loose it’s edge pretty easily. Not a big deal as you can just sharpen it frequently."
"Have enjoyed using my Tojiro Atelier knife over the past month. It is a great all purpose kitchen knife similar to a French knife. With daily use of white ceramic honing rod it has retained its edge better than any of my Henkel knives."
"Looks amazing, handle is comfortable, and the blade is super sharp. It’s my prized home knife. I usually use a less expensive knife at work. Aesthetically great, sharp out of the box and comfortable. VG10 is great because you don’t have to worry about rust or patina."
"I bought this knife ad a gift for my husband. We’re both blown away by it. The packaging is excellent, the knife is super sharp and comfortable to use. The best part though, it’s super sexy!"
