Tadafusa-Made SLD Gyuto for Tokushu Knife
The Tokushu Knife SLD Tsuchime Gyuto is a 240mm Japanese chef knife manufactured by Tadafusa in Sanjo, Japan. It uses SLD semi-stainless steel, a long-tapered Gyuto profile, a hammered Tsuchime finish, and an included walnut Wa handle.
The 240mm edge provides additional cutting length for slicing and large-volume prep. The blade measures 50mm tall at the heel and 3.9mm thick at the heel, with taper toward the tip. SLD offers greater stain resistance than fully reactive carbon steel but should still be washed and dried promptly after use.
Add our professional sharpening service if you would like the edge refined before shipment.

Steel, Construction and Care
Our catalog includes stainless, semi-stainless and carbon steels selected for edge performance and durability. Carbon steels may develop a patina, while stainless steels are designed to resist discoloration. Follow the care guidance on each product page, hand wash only and dry the knife promptly after use.
This knife punches well above its price, especially on sale. It glides through everything I’ve thrown at it. The handle is extremely comfortable as well. Edge has held up well in the short time I’ve owned. Still cuts tomatoes like new out of the box. The sharpening service add-on produced a very keen edge. If you’re looking for a Sanjo style workhorse that doesn’t wedge, this is it!
This is a great knife at any price. Perfect workhorse, but don't let that fool you- there is plenty of precision here, too. Also beautiful to look at, in a sort of industrial way, and fit and finish are better than anything I've seen in this style- and especially this price range. Mr. Peters' sharpening service gives it a really custom fit edge, and it will do literally anything you could even halfway reasonably need in a kitchen setting. The steel is as advertised- hard AND tough, and easy to work with and care for. Home run, boys!
Great workhorse grind, easily cuts through sweet potatoes or squash with ease.
