Cyber Monday Steal Kato Gyuto Damascus 210mm (8.3") 45% Off - Today Only [W1QItMil]

Kato Gyuto Damascus is a great looking piece. Highly polished blade makes the both wavy and circular Damascus pattern stick out in all its glory. This Gyuto shaped knife is intended for versatile use for chefs and home cooks who prefer a medium size multi-purpose knife.

The core of this knife is made of VG-10 steel, a popular, low maintenance stainless steel with good edge retention, hardened to around 60-61 HRC. Softer, nickel (Ni) based steel is clad around the core (san-mai clad), giving the blade this beautiful Damascus pattern. 

Yoshimi Kato, a relatively young blacksmith from the famous Takefu village, known for many skilled blacksmiths, gave the blade a Western-type, durable red&black pakka wood handle. The handle was attached to the blade with three stainless pins and features a stainless bolster for a smooth transition from the handle to the blade.
