Gyuto Japanese kitchen knife Sakai Takayuki Ginga 7885 24cm

For people who appreciate both quality and style in their cuisine, the Gyuto Sakai Takayuki Ginga chef's knife is perfect. Modern, premium Japanese stainless steel, ZA-18 steel, is used to make the 24 centimetre blade. Its high chromium and carbon content makes it reasonably easy to maintain and offers exceptional edge retention and corrosion resistance. 69 layers of Damascus steel with an eye-catching design cover the ZA-18 blade core. The word ginga means "galaxy," and looking at this exquisite blade is akin to looking at a smattering of brilliant stars. The classic wa handle has a buffalo horn bolster and is made of wenge wood.
