Overview
The Hatsukokoro Ginrei Silver #3 Gyuto 210mm with mono ebony handle is a stainless Japanese chef knife built for everyday prep with a clean balance of sharpness, ease of care, and value. Made with a Silver #3 steel core, also known as Ginsan, Ginsanko, or Gingami #3, this gyuto gives cooks a fine-grained stainless steel that sharpens well and offers a cutting feel many users associate with carbon steel, without the same level of reactivity.
The 210mm gyuto is one of the most versatile Japanese knife sizes. This Tokushu Knife-measured example has a 208mm blade length, making it efficient for slicing, chopping, and daily board work while still feeling approachable in most home kitchens. It works well for vegetables, boneless proteins, herbs, fruit, and general meal prep. The thin spine and fine 0.4mm tip help the knife feel precise and responsive through detail cuts and smooth slicing.
The mono ebony wa handle gives this version a refined, clean look and a premium feel in hand. For cooks looking for a first serious Japanese chef knife, a lower-maintenance stainless workhorse, or a reliable daily gyuto with elegant styling, the Hatsukokoro Ginrei Silver #3 Gyuto is a strong choice. For best edge life, use a knife-friendly board such as a Hasegawa Pro Cutting Board, and maintain the edge between sharpenings with a leather strop.
