Why Choose This Knife?

Shindo-san's knives are forged from Aogami #2, a steel celebrated for its balance between edge retention and ease of sharpening. Heat-treated to an optimal HRC of 62+-, these knives are not just tools but testaments to a blacksmith's passion and dedication. Secure your piece of artistry from a blacksmith poised to redefine the standards of knife-making.

Enhance Your Experience

We recommend selecting a premium handle from our collection of complimentary items to complement your knife. Additionally, consider our professional sharpening service to ensure the knife is ready for peak performance out of the box.

To protect the delicate edge and maximize edge retention, pair this knife with a Hasegawa cutting board. Its forgiving surface is ideal for hard and thin knives like this Shindo-san masterpiece, ensuring longevity and unparalleled performance.

Fantastic gyuto

I am very impressed with the value and performance of this knife. Fit and finish is great. It easily took a scary sharp edge. It may be my new favorite knife. This knife’s performance is akin to an Ashi Ginga for roughly half the price.

Also the handle I picked out (ebony with a ferrule) fits great. It seems that the knife was balanced perfectly during handle installation, which is a great touch.

If anyone is reading this that may be considering this knife, pull the trigger. It is absolutely worth the money at the ~$100 range. If you don’t sharpen knives I would recommend getting the sharpening service offered, as the knife needed touched up out of the box.

A fantastic gyuto for the price.
