Takamura Chromax Gyuto 210mm

Terukazu Takamura is a name synonymous with excellence in the world of blacksmithing. Forging from Echizen, Takamura Hamono creates masterpieces without skimping on any detail. Takamura knives are renowned for their performance and craftsmanship, and they’re favored by world-class chefs like René Redzepi of the Michelin-starred Noma and Massimo Bottura of Osteria Francescana.

The Chromax line has quickly gained a reputation for being extraordinary, despite being relatively new. So, why the hype? Chromax steel, though somewhat obscure in the knife world, is treated to an impressive HRC 64-65, offering excellent edge retention and a robust, less-reactive feel compared to carbon steel. This knife boasts a laser-thin grind and a performance comparable to stainless-clad Aogami Super knives. The hand-hammered finish adds a beautiful touch to this high-performing, well-priced knife.

The 210mm gyuto is one of the most popular knife styles, ideal for both home cooks and professional chefs. This versatile length hits the sweet spot, making it a must-have in any kitchen.

Love the Takamura

What a delight! Great value. Even better after 10m sanding the spine down. Hard but not chippy, sharpens easily.

I have the R2 version but prefer the way this one feels in my hand and the finish and color are great. Core steel patinas quickly. Just buy it

Great Value!

Takamura makes the only knife I will buy with a western style handle. This is because their blades are so great. In my opinion they are the best value in Japanese knives.
