Common Questions
Q: Is a 240mm gyuto suitable for everyday kitchen tasks?
A: Absolutely. Despite its longer length, this size excels at big prep jobs—like cutting through large roasts or melons—while still offering the control needed for smaller tasks. Many chefs prefer 240mm for its added reach and efficiency.
Q: How do I attach a custom handle?
A: This knife is sold without a handle, giving you full freedom to choose a custom option. You can DIY by sourcing a wa handle and using epoxy, or consult a professional for seamless installation.
Q: What makes SG2 steel special?
A: SG2 (also called R2) is a high-end powder steel known for its ability to take a very keen edge while maintaining excellent edge retention. Combined with stainless cladding, it’s easier to maintain than most carbon steel blades.
