DAO VUA TALL SPECIAL 52100 Carbon Steel Gyuto 270mm
Do you like a tall and thin blade? Dao Vua is pushing the limits of what is possible with mono-steel blades. The specs on this new model speak for themselves!
Among those who explore beyond Japanese-made kitchen knives, the brand Dao Vua is often a name encountered on the internet. Originating from Hanoi, Vietnam, Dao Vua knives are impressively handcrafted by Vietnamese bladesmiths, using high-quality materials. Despite their humble and sustainable production process, these knives stand out due to their high build quality and sharpness, offered at a very affordable price point. However, they require careful maintenance, as being carbon steel with a kurouchi finish, they are reactive and must be wiped dry.
Dao Vua has introduced its third iteration to address concerns regarding the consistency of their final products. The line now sources 52100 carbon steel from the US, ensuring the uniformity and quality of the finished product. A Gyuto knife is a versatile chef's knife, perfect for a wide range of cutting tasks, from slicing and dicing vegetables to cutting meat and fish. At 270mm, it's a substantial and powerful size for professional and home chefs alike.
