Gyuto (牛刀) and Petty

Its name, "Gyuto," translates to "beef knife," indicating its historical use for cutting and preparing meat. However, its capabilities extend far beyond meat-centric tasks.

The Petty knife, originating in Japan, is a compact utility blade tailored for detailed tasks.

The combination that can put together an extraordinary meal. Equipped with these, the only technique limitation is not trying - brunoise, dicing, peeling, coring - have confidence to tackle any ingredient.

Vanishing point

The V-shaped grind on the Gyuto's blade is honed in with a thin bevel and seamlessly reaches the edge to a microscopic point.

As the experts do

The knife is optimally weighted to offer a pinch grip - a grip that places the thumb and forefinger close to the knife's blade, providing optimal control and precision.

  • Heat treatment tempering at 350°F to achieve optimal blade strength.
  • Reaching a Rockwell Hardness of 59 for extended sharpness and durability.
  • Prepared for immediate use, our knives are polished, sharpened, and quality assured.

Precision

The curved belly of our gyuto, following the cutting edge, is crafted to make techniques like the 'rock chop' easier, ensuring accuracy in each cut.

Ergonomic

Our 5-inch Petty knife is crafted for the tasks of both a 3-inch paring knife and a 7-inch Petty knife. With its versatility, it eliminates the need for multiple knives.
