Tsunehisa AUS-10 Nami 240mm Gyuto No Handle
The Tsunehisa Gyuto AUS-10 Nami 240mm is a multi-purpose Japanese kitchen knife, ideally suited for preparing meat, fish, and vegetables. It’s a perfect choice for those seeking a knife with more blade real estate that can handle larger cuts of meat and function well as a slicer too. The AUS-10 steel is a practical stainless steel, offering fine sharpness and impressive edge retention, making maintenance straightforward.
A distinctive 33-layered Damascus pattern enhances the aesthetics of the blade – this pattern is unique to every knife and can't be replicated. The Damascus pattern is partly round and curvy, hence the name Nami (波), which translates to ‘wave’. Like your fingerprint, no two blades are alike. The entire blade is polished to a reflective mirror finish, allowing you to see your reflection!
Offering the most versatile and useful blade shape for a modern kitchen, the Gyuto comes with a wide profile for easy food transfer and is fairly flat towards the heel for effortless and quick chopping. The pointed tip allows for precision and delicate work. A slight curve between the tip and the midsection makes the belly great for rocking the blade back and forth when cutting. It can be used for cutting meat, fish, and vegetables.
The heart of this knife is made of Aichi's AUS-10 stainless steel, hardened to around 62 HRC. The high Chromium (Cr) content makes the AUS-10 steel highly resistant to corrosion.
